To do this, it is necessary to disassemble the reactors, gain access to the fuel, and then carry out a very complex technological operation to reload it. This requires licensed personnel, which is not available now. It also requires complex managerial and technical decisions on what to do with the fuel that will be unloaded. There are people there who have never done this before
He also reminded that the occupiers are replacing qualified Ukrainian personnel with inexperienced people from russia and from cities near Enerhodar who have no idea how to operate nuclear facilities.
Addendum
The head of Energoatom, Petro Kotin, said that an incredible amount of nuclear materials and fuel is stored at the occupied Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, which poses significant risks, as ZNPP is under the full control of the occupiers.
