IAEA Director General announced progress in the issue of creating a security zone around ZNPP

“An excellent meeting with Volodymyr Zelensky on the current situation.

I reiterated that the IAEA will continue to be guided by international law.

We have also made progress in establishing a nuclear protection and security zone around the ZNPP,” he wrote on Twitter.

Grossi noted that he intends to visit Ukraine again to continue the dialogue.

Earlier, the authorities of the Zaporozhye region reported that in order to start the operation of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in Energodar, guarantees were needed to stop shelling by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

On October 5, Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed to transfer the Zaporozhye NPP under the control of the Russian Federation.
