Russian president set to make first trip to ICC member state since warrant for arrest issued
After visiting Russia’s Kursk nuclear power plant earlier this week, International Atomic Energy Agency director general Rafael Grossi will next week travel to Ukraine to hold high-level talks and assess developments at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, a statement on the IAEA website said. “The IAEA acts promptly and decisively whenever and wherever there are threats to nuclear safety and security.
Our proactive presence is of paramount importance to help stabilise the situation,” Grossi said. “My message has been loud and clear throughout this tragic war: a nuclear accident must be avoided at all costs, and a nuclear power plant must never be attacked. The consequences could be disastrous, and no one stands to benefit from it. I remain determined to do everything in my power to protect nuclear safety and security as long as the fighting continues.
