The event was organized by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a credible organization bringing together politicians, leading experts and heads of private sector companies.

The main topic for discussion was russian aggression in Ukraine. Petro Kotin spoke in detail about the actions of the occupiers at the nuclear power plants of our country, in particular about the occupation of the Chornobyl and Zaporizhzhya NPPs as well as the attempt to seize the South Ukraine nuclear power plant.

Separately, they discussed the situation at the Zaporizhzhya NPP, in particular the systematic abuse of the power plant's personnel, who, despite the danger, do not leave the critically important facility.
