“In a phone call, I informed IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi about the large-scale consequences of the Russian act of terrorism at the Kakhovka HPP dam. We discussed ways to minimize risks to ZNPP security. Agreed on Mr. Grossi's visit to Ukraine,” Zelenskyy said on Telegram.
The Head of State also announced an agreement with the Director General of the IAEA regarding his visit to Ukraine.
Earlier, Grossi confirmed his plans to visit the ZNPP station in person next week.
