ZNPP Ukrainian staff refuse to carry out unlawful order of plant’s illegitimate management on start-up of power unit 4

Broken image placeholder.

Illegally appointed by the russian authorities as the «director general» of the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhya NPP Yuriy Chernichuk is persuading nuclear workers, who refused to sign fake contracts with Rosatom, to launch the power unit 4.

The power plant personnel flatly refuses to comply with the unlawful order, which is a direct breach of the operating license granted by the State Nuclear Regulatory Inspectorate of Ukraine (SNRIU).

Over the last week, due to the constant physical and psychological pressure from the occupationists, about 30 persons of ZNPP licensed staff left Enerhodar. They managed to move to the government-controlled territory of Ukraine.

Currently, the operational personnel brought in from the russian federation is completely incompetent and does not have the appropriate experience.

Chernichuk is trying to handle this and engage those Ukrainian workers who even earlier refused to sign fake contracts with Rosatom and whose access to the power plant was blocked.

The responsible Ukrainian personnel is aware that violation of the terms of the SNRIU license will lead to the loss of personal licenses after the ZNPP deoccupation.

We urge Ukrainian nuclear power professionals to continue not to carry out unlawful orders of the power plant's occupying leadership! Keep in mind that the decisions of illegitimate managers can lead to violations of the nuclear and radiation safety standards of the power plant!
