IAEA Director General to discuss security zone around ZNPP with Moscow

IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi will visit Moscow to discuss the establishment of a security zone around the occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP

Russian media RIA-Novosti reported the information.

The media claims that IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi will visit Moscow.

As the Russian diplomatic mission in Vienna informed RIA-Novosti, Grossi will consult with representatives of Russia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, National Guard, Rosatom state energy company and Rostechnadzor, a supervisory body on ecological, technological, and nuclear issues. They will discuss the establishment of a security zone around the temporarily occupied Zaporizhzhia NPP.

• On December 2, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi expressed his hope that the situation around the ZNPP will be resolved by the end of the year.
• On December 6, Rosatom announced that it would not transfer control over the Zaporizhzhia NPP to the IAEA, as the organization allegedly does not have the mandate to manage nuclear plants.
