Zelenskyy called for sanctions against Rosatom in the 12th EU package
In connection with the threat of a disaster at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, called on the EU to work on the next package of sanctions and introduce restrictions against the Russian Rosatom company.
Source: As European Pravda reports, he stated this at a press conference with the Prime Minister of Spain, Pedro Sánchez.
Details: Zelenskyy warned about the preparation by the Russian occupiers of a potential disaster scenario at Europe's largest nuclear power plant, the Zaporizhzhia NPP.
According to him, in this regard, world leaders need to put pressure on Russia to prevent radiation incidents at the ZNPP.
Quote: "It is already necessary to start work on the 12th package of sanctions; Pedro [Sánchez] and I started talking about these sanctions today. Ukraine does not understand why sanctions have not yet been introduced against Rosatom and its leadership when representatives of this company continue to occupy Zaporizhzhia NPP and put our general security at risk," Zelenskyy said.
