The fact that the US has imposed sanctions on the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant confirms that it belongs to Russia, Vladimir Rogov, a member of the main council of the administration of the Zaporozhye region, said.
Earlier, the US State Department announced sanctions against WAC, as well as some representatives of its leadership.
In a commentary to RIA Novosti, Rogov noted that with the imposition of sanctions, the Western countries recognized that it would not be possible to return the ZNPP under the control of Ukraine.
“Second, they recognize that the Zaporozhye NPP is an enterprise owned by the Russian Federation. The West understood this, got used to it and resigned itself to the fact that there is nowhere to go,” he said.
ZNPP is the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, located on the territory of the Zaporozhye region, which became part of Russia on September 30. The nuclear power plant is regularly shelled by Ukrainian military formations. On September 11, the authorities of the Zaporozhye region announced the shutdown of the last power unit of the ZNPP. On November 3, it was reported that the Zaporozhye NPP was completely disconnected from the Ukrainian energy system.
On January 19, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi wrote on social networks that during his visit to Kyiv he discussed with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky the creation of a security zone around the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant. He noted that he also confirmed the intention of the organization to create support missions at all nuclear power plants in Ukraine.
Earlier, President Vladimir Putin instructed to transfer the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant under the control of Russia. He signed the corresponding decree on October 5.
