Nuclear Plant Risk High On Agenda As Un Chief Zelenskiy And Erdogan Prepare For Talks Ukraine

Guterres has said he wants a demilitarized zone around the Zaporizhia plant, Europe’s largest. Russian state media accused Ukraine of planning a “provocation” at the plant to coincide with the UN leader’s trip, raising fears that the Russian military could be planning a “false flag attack”. When Guterres traveled to Kyiv in April, Moscow launched an airstrike on the city. On Wednesday, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg warned that Russia’s seizure of the plant “increased the risk of a nuclear accident or incident” and accused Moscow of being “reckless” in using the area as a platform to launch artillery strikes. to the Ukrainian forces. Stoltenberg called for a Russian withdrawal and inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency. Ukraine’s foreign minister, Dmytro Kuleba, said he had spoken with the UN nuclear watchdog and was ready to lead a delegation to the plant.

International nuclear safety officials have been concerned about the lack of spare parts, access for routine maintenance of the reactors and contact with personnel, which have been disrupted by the conflict. A second issue is the shelling around the plant, with Russians and Ukrainians accusing each other of targeting the site. According to Energoatom, Ukraine’s nuclear authority, the grad missile strikes earlier this month were near the spent fuel storage area, with the plant’s operator claiming Russian troops were “specifically targeting” the containers, despite its presence of the Russian army at the scene. Ukrainian Interior Minister Denis Monastirsky said Ukraine must “prepare for all scenarios,” during an exercise for emergency workers in Zaporizhia.

Also on the agenda for the summit will be progress on grain shipments, which have been blocked for months by Russia’s incursion. On Friday, Guterres will travel to the Black Sea port of Odessa, a critical gateway for Ukrainian grain to reach the rest of the world. He will then continue to Turkey to visit the Joint Coordination Centre, the body tasked with overseeing the agreement. Ukraine’s fields feed hundreds of millions of people around the world, so the abrupt halt in shipments has pushed up global grain prices at a time when famine is already threatening east Africa.

So far, 24 ships have left Ukraine’s Black Sea ports, a monitoring group said. Kyiv has a backlog of 18 million tonnes of grain from last year’s harvest, even as it begins to bring in the 2022 crop. It hopes to soon increase exports to 3 million tonnes a month, easing global prices and freeing up storage space for new grain. A spokesman for Guterres said the talks would cover the grain deal and “the need for a political solution to this conflict”, telling AFP he had “no doubt the issue of the nuclear plant” would come up. It will be six months on August 24 since the start of the invasion – which Russia calls a “special military operation” – and many members of the UN Security Council, including the US, Britain, the Republic of Ireland and Norway, have called meeting on that date. Kyiv is expected to launch a counteroffensive in southern Ukraine in the coming weeks and has carried out spectacular attacks deep inside Russian territory, including on an air base in Crimea. But despite shipments of Western arms and ammunition, Ukraine is still struggling against heavy Russian artillery bombardment along the eastern front. Ukraine’s presidential adviser Oleksii Arestovich said in a video on Wednesday that the war had reached a “strategic stalemate.” “Russian forces have made only minimal progress, and in some cases we have, since last month,” he said.
