"Blowing up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station would mean the same thing as using weapons of mass destruction" - Zelenskyy calls on the world to stop terrorist state
Blowing up the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station (HPP) will mean a large-scale catastrophe. With this act of terrorism, the Russian forces can destroy, among other things, even the possibility of supplying water from the Dnipro River to Crimea, because the North Crimean canal will simply disappear in the event of the destruction of the dam.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said this in an evening video message.
“Now everyone in the world must act powerfully and quickly to prevent a new Russian terrorist attack. And if Russia is preparing such a terrorist attack, if it is seriously considering such a scenario, it means that the terrorists are very clearly aware: they cannot hold not only Kherson, but also the entire south of our country, including Crimea. We must now all together - all Europeans, all world leaders, and all international organizations - make it clear to the terrorist state that such a terrorist attack on the Kakhovka HPP would mean exactly the same as the use of weapons of mass destruction. The consequences for Russia should be appropriate. The world must react - preventively. This is key now. The principle of preventive response to security threats should finally become one of the basic principles of international politics,” Zelenskyy emphasized.
