IAEA Director General submitted a new plan for protection of the temporarily occupied ZNPP
On May 30, the Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency Rafael Grossi announced five principles for ensuring nuclear safety and security at Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant at a meeting of the UN Security Council:
-
There should be no attack of any kind from or against the plant, in particular targeting the reactors, spent fuel storage, other critical infrastructure, or personnel.
-
ZNPP should not be used as storage or a base for heavy weapons (i.e. multiple rocket launchers, artillery systems and munitions, and tanks) or military personnel that could be used for an attack from the plant.
-
Off-site power to the plant should not be put at risk. To that effect, all efforts should be made to ensure that off-site power remains available and secure at all times.
-
All structures, systems and components essential to the safe and secure operation of ZNPP should be protected from attacks or acts of sabotage.
-
No action should be taken that undermines these principles.
IAEA Director General assured that representatives of the organization would monitor their implementation and publicly report any violations.
