By KYIV. March 6 (Interfax-Ukraine) – Russian nuclear scientists are compiling the lists of equipment of the Science and Technology Center at Zaporizhia Nuclear Power plant (ZNPP) with the aim of dismantling it for further removal in case of the occupation forces’ retreat, National Nuclear Generating Company Energoatom has said on the Telegram channel on Monday.
“During the examination of the premises of the Science and Technology Center at the ZNPP, the Rushists’ “nuclear scientists” compiled the lists of equipment which “it is necessary to dismantle” (i.e. steal) from the nuclear power plant in case of a retreat,” it said.
The invaders paid special attention to Energoatom’s Maintenance and Management Personnel Training Center, which was created on the basis of the Science and Technology Center at the ZNPP.
“It is a unique facility where nuclear scientists from numerous countries of the world use full-scale equipment models to receive rare practical skills that are necessary for repairs and maintenance of nuclear power plants,” Energoatom said.
In due time, Energoatom invested UAH 500 million and the European Union allocated around EUR 13 million for the creation of this center, the company said.
