    Ukraine has a clear and understandable position on the de-occupation of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant (ZNPP).  This includes the imposition of the toughest sanctions against russia, the use of all possible instruments of the IAEA and the UN, and the prompt return of Ukrainian control over the plant. This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal during a Government meeting. 

    "Two years ago, the armed russian military occupied the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in violation of all international law. An unprecedented case in history that brought the continent to the brink of disaster. Since then, more than 150 gross violations of the plant's operation have been recorded, each of which can be fatal," the Head of Government stressed. 

    The Prime Minister also spoke about the state's ambitious plans in the energy sector. 

    "We plan to complete the construction of the third and fourth units at Khmelnytsky NPP, build units 5 and 6 using AR 1000 technology, create two interconnectors to Europe to strengthen energy integration with the EU and build new high-maneuverability generation facilities with a capacity of 2-3 GW," said Denys Shmyhal.
