PThe resident of France had a telephone conversation with Vladimir Zelensky, which lasted more than an hour and a half. On September 5, the IAEA experts left the power plant, who recorded that the NPP was shelled The withdrawal of Russian troops from the Zaporozhye NPP is the only way to achieve safety at the power plant, French President Emmanuel Macron said in a telephone conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart Vladimir Zelensky. This is reported by Reuters with reference to the statement of the Elysee Palace. Zelensky said on Twitter that his conversation with Macron lasted more than an hour and a half. The Russian military took control of the NPP at the end of February, almost immediately after the start of the military operation in Ukraine. In July and August, Kiev and Moscow repeatedly accused each other of shelling the power plant. The Ukrainian authorities and the G7 countries called on Russian troops to leave the nuclear power plant. Moscow claims that it does not use the station for military purposes, and believes that the creation of a demilitarized zone in this area will make the station even more vulnerable to provocations from Kiev.
On September 1, a group of experts from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) arrived at the NPP. On the day of the visit, the Russian Defense Ministry said that the Ukrainian landing force tried to seize the facility, but Russian forces took measures to destroy the enemy. On September 3, the agency reported another attempt by the AFU to land troops and seize the NPP.
The IAEA experts found that the physical integrity of the facility had been violated more than once, and saw traces of shelling. On September 5, the agency’s specialists left the station. Two representatives of the delegation remained there on a permanent basis. A detailed report on the situation at the NPP is planned to be published next week after the visit.
