IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi intends to visit Ukraine amid escalating problems at Zaporizhzhia NPP due to deteriorating equipment. Despite the fact that the Russian occupiers allowed IAEA experts access to the plant, the situation is approaching a critical point.

The Minister of Energy of Ukraine said that the situation at ZNPP is getting worse, although the occupiers allowed IAEA experts to the plant's facilities, but this does not change the overall picture. Herman Halushchenko said this on the air of the telethon "United News", UNN reports.

In fact, the situation is getting worse, and the process of equipment degradation continues. The Russians have now allowed IAEA experts to visit the reactor units from the third iteration, but this does not change the overall picture. The situation is moving to a critical point. In the near future, IAEA Director General Rafael Grossi will arrive in Ukraine and he may visit Zaporizhzhia NPP personally. The world's attention is now focused on this, because the presence of Russians there is a constant danger, not only for the war between Ukraine and Russia, but for the whole world.
