«On Sunday, direct attacks against Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant marked a major escalation of the nuclear safety and security dangers in Ukraine, significantly increasing the risk of a nuclear accident. We [at the IAEA] are meeting today, and I will meet with the UN Security Council next week, because it is of paramount importance to ensure these reckless attacks do not mark the beginning of a new and gravely dangerous front of the war,» Grossi said in a statement. The IAEA chief also called on the international community to increase efforts to de-escalate the conflict in Ukraine. The director general also called for refraining from violating IAEA principles on preventing a nuclear accident at the ZNPP. «That is what I am doing today and that is what I will do when I travel to the UN Security Council next week,» Grossi noted.
