The IAEA inspection did not find military equipment at Ukrainian nuclear power plants, the head of the agency, Raphael Grossi, said at a speech in the European Parliament.
The day before, the head of the Foreign Intelligence Service of Russia, Sergey Naryshkin, said that the Ukrainian military is storing weapons and ammunition, including HIMARS missiles, on the territory of the nuclear power plant (in particular, at Rivne).
According to Naryshkin, Ukraine expects that Russia will not strike nuclear facilities, and if the weapons are detonated “because of a “stray” Ukrainian air defense missile,” Moscow can be blamed for this.
Counselor of the Office of the President of Ukraine, Mykhailo Podolyak, rejected these statements and in turn accused Russia of seizing the Zaporizhia NPP. “Ukraine is always open to inspection bodies, in particular the IAEA. The purpose of the Russians’ lies is to justify their provocations,” wrote Podolyak on Twitter.
Earlier, the Ukrainian “Energoatom” reported that IAEA inspectors regularly work at all Ukrainian nuclear power plants (Rovenskaya, Khmelnytskyi and Yuzhno-Ukrainskaya). Including since September, they are at the station in Zaporozhye, the territory of which was occupied by the Russian military.
