Quote: "Russia’s leadership should think long and hard about whether they want to risk causing a nuclear catastrophe. Because if that happens, the international community will absolutely hold Russia to account."

"We believe that the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) should have full access to all portions of the plant. Russia should facilitate this onsite access."

Background: President Volodymyr Zelenskyy warned Russia that the world can see what scenarios the terrorists are preparing for at the Zaporizhzhia NPP and is ready to react.

Prior to that, the Armed Forces of Ukraine had warned fellow citizens that the Russians may soon start preparations for provocations at the Zaporizhzhia NPP, and had placed explosive-like objects on the roofs of two power units.
