"Panic and hysterics do not understand." As a situation at the Zaporozhye NPP is connected with the desire of the Russian Federation to freeze the war - the adviser of the Minister of Energy

Advisor to the Minister of Energy of Ukraine Oleksandr Kharchenko believes that the situation at the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant (ZPP) is "abnormal and crazy", but it is not necessary to panic. “Frankly, I do not understand this panic and hysterics now. The actions that are now unfolding at the Zaporizhzhya NPP have not been unfolded in the day. The last month the situation is unchanged-every three to four days fly around the station.

Yes, there are fighting, Russian equipment is in the machine hall. So she has been standing there for five weeks, ”Kharchenko said on Radio HB. The adviser to the Minister of Energy seems that the injection of the situation around the NPP is "dispersed" by Russian media and diplomatic efforts before the UN Security Council meeting, which took place the day before.

“A clean increase in degree, a situation in order to create additional pressure on the international community in order to freeze the conflict in Ukraine. What I see right now is inserts into this logic. Ukraine has finally started active: two weeks ago it began an active diplomatic activity in order to achieve the sanctioning of Rossa in order to create pressure on the Russians in order to withdraw their troops from the Zaporozhye station.

The formation of an international coalition that could achieve it began, ”he explained. The Russians responded to the activation of Ukrainians, and they, according to Kharchenko, are frightening the world with a nuclear catastrophe. “The reactor - the thing is reliable enough. It is designed so that the plane can fall on it and the leakage of radioactive substances does not occur. Therefore, to say that something will happen is not true.

Of course, this is an abnormal situation when troops stand at the station. Of course, it is absolute madness when tanks and APCs are driven in the machine halls and together with the ammunition there. At the same time, it should be understood that those reactors that are in Zaporozhye are not at all as they were in Chornobyl. This is other reactors with a different level of safety, ”Kharchenko says.

According to him, similar reactors of the previous generation stood in Fukushima: "They covered tsunami and catastrophe did not happen. " At the same time, in his opinion, it is impossible to light the situation, and Ukraine has already found a decision discussed with international partners. “We need to very clearly exhibit the Muscovites conditions in which they will be very painful if they do not go to the demilitarization of the Zaporizhzhya station.
