Zaporizhia NPP should become part of security guarantees
Nuclear energy is a real security guarantee for Ukraine, and Zaporizhia NPP should become part of them, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
"And the nuclear power plant is also a real security guarantee for us. If we return to security guarantees, I have a question, what about Zaporizhia plant? Are these not security guarantees for us from Europe? Security guarantees, so these are important conditions," Zelenskyy said at a video conference with journalists on Monday.
The president said if it were not for nuclear energy, Ukraine "would have had a catastrophe" three winters in a row.
