He emphasized that currently international organizations, in particular the IAEA, the UN, and all other bodies do not control the situation at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.
“Moreover, international investigations were conducted and made public, clearly showing how the Russians transport weapons, equipment and explosives into the territory of power units. There is confirmed information stating that the Russian occupying forces laid mines at the power units of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Enerhodar.”
The intelligence representative emphasized that the Russians can confirm their non-involvement in nuclear blackmail and shelling of the ZNPP by handing control over it to the IAEA and an international commission.
He stated that the whole world should sound the alarm in order to stop the possible repetition of various scenarios – one of which is the repetition of “nuclear Olenivka”(the killing of Ukrainian war prisoners by Russians).
