He recalled that in September the IAEA Director General put forward an initiative to create a nuclear and physical safety protection zone at the Zaporozhye NPP.

According to Ulyanov, this proposal, which "would exclude attacks from the territory of the nuclear power plant and against it," has not yet been implemented.

“Ukraine, unfortunately, is not ready for this,” the Russian envoy wrote on his Telegram channel.

Earlier, the adviser to the head of the Rosenergoatom concern, Renat Karchaa, said that the Ukrainian army fired on the security personnel of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant.

According to him, Russia is preparing a note in connection with the incident.

On February 23, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Galuzin said that the dialogue on creating a security zone at the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) is not going well.
