Things are not going so well for Ukraine after the armies of President Volodymyr Zelensky failed to complete their mission of attacking Russia’s Kursk Nuclear Power Plant (NPP).
At a recent cabinet meeting, Russian President Vladimir Putin confirmed that Ukrainian forces tried, but failed, to destroy the facility after sending thousands of troops into Russia’s Kursk Oblast earlier this month in what Putin described as an act of “terrorism.”
To stop Ukraine from succeeding in its quest, Putin deployed additional troops to the region for bolstered protection.
“Last night, the enemy attempted to strike the atomic power plant,” Putin said at the meeting. “The International Atomic Energy Agency [IAEA] has been informed. They promised to come themselves and send specialists to assess the situation. I hope they actually do so.”
At Zaporizhzhia NPP, Europe’s largest nuclear facility, IAEA observers have been positioned since the summer of 2023 to keep a close eye on the situation after Ukrainian forces attempted to set ablaze one of the plant’s cooling towers earlier this month.
Russian media is reporting that Alexey Likhachev, CEO of state-owned nuclear energy company Rosatom invited IAEA Director Rafael Grossi to personally visit Kursk to assess the situation there as Ukraine forges on in trying to win a war that it stands no chance at winning. Grossi accepted the invitation and is on his way to Kursk, after which he will visit Kiev to have a chat with Volodymyr Zelensky.
