Likhachev pointed to the expansion of the geography of attacks by the Ukrainian Armed Forces on Russian nuclear facilities

The geography of provocations by the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) against Russian nuclear facilities has expanded in recent weeks. This was announced on September 25 by the head of Rosatom, Alexei Likhachev, in an interview with journalist Pavel Zarubin.

"I think this is a kind of response to our active work with the IAEA, with our partners, including in Europe, in the nuclear energy sector," Likhachev said. A video of the conversation with him was posted on the journalist's Telegram channel.

According to him, the head of the IAEA, Rafael Grossi, knows where the strikes are coming from. The question in this case is what exactly he has the right to say as the general director of the agency. As a private individual, Grossi gives quite adequate assessments, the head of Rosatom emphasized.

"So far, thank God, there are no damages, the situation is under control, but we are doing everything to minimize any negative effects from these attacks," Likhachev said.
