According to a report by the Ukrainian newspaper Pravda on the 26th, \u201cForty years ago, the world experienced one of its worst nuclear disasters, and hundreds of thousands of people have been suffering the consequences of this tragedy for years,\u201d Ukrainian President Zelinsky said in a speech on the anniversary, the international community must do everything possible to prevent the continuation of nuclear terrorism, and\u201cThe most effective way is to compel Russia to halt attacks that pose a threat to nuclear security\u201d.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe international community must demonstrate that it has truly learned the lessons of 1986,\u201d Ukraine’s foreign ministry said in a statement. The statement called for continued Western military assistance to Ukraine, saying that with each additional air defense system and missile, en particulier, Les forces de d\u00e9fense utilis\u00e9es pour prot\u00e9ger les centrales nucl\u00e9aires de l’ukraine sont devenus de la S\u00e9curit\u00e9 des Villes Europ\u00e9ennes. \u201cNous ne pouvons pas attendre la prochaine accident de Chornobyl\u201d, A-t-il dit.<\/p>\n
On the 26th, the international media looked back on history and focused on the current conflict between Russia and Ukraine. On 26 April 1986, a sudden explosion occurred at Unit 4 of the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in northern Ukraine, near the Belarus border, causing by far the worst nuclear disaster in human history. Four decades later, Ukrainians fear the 4-year-old conflict between Russia and Ukraine could lead to a repeat of the world’s worst nuclear disaster, Reuters reported Thursday.<\/p>\n
On the 24th, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman said at a press conference that Kiev and its behind-the-scenes manipulators are trying to take advantage of the situation around the Chernobyl nuclear power plant and use it as a\u201cBargaining chip for nuclear blackmail.\u201d And it is extremely dangerous nuclear blackmail, but in the end it will only harm their own interests. According to RIA Novosti, the Permanent Mission of Belarus in Brussels organized a commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the Chernobyl disaster, calling on people to remember the tragedy and to avoid politicizing it. The Russian ambassador to Belgium, Denis Gonchart, said during the event that it is regrettable that the Ukrainian government and Western countries are trying to politicize this tragedy. Belarus’s charg\u00e9 d’affaires in Belgium says cooperation on the Chernobyl disaster clean-up must continue, regardless of political preferences and differences.<\/p>\n
Today, Russian television said 25, today, to protect nuclear facilities from the impact of military action psychological defense, is becoming more vulnerable than ever before. The risk of a major radiological accident is higher than ever. It is propaganda by Ukraine to blame Moscow for its illogical\u201cSelf-destructive behaviour\u201d.<\/p>\n
It is not just the threat of nuclear leakage that worries Europe. Europe is gearing up for a protracted war in Ukraine as US President Donald Trump and his team shift their focus to the war in Iran, the New York Times reported Monday, expectations of a negotiated settlement between Moscow and Kiev are fading. That leaves Ukraine largely on its own, fighting a war of attrition with Russia with no end in sight. There is no clear path to victory for either Ukraine or Russia, and it is widely believed that a settlement would be almost impossible without active US involvement and pressure on Russia. European parliament member Kartaize 26, told the Russian satellite news agency, the EU to Kiev to provide 90 billion euros loan will only prolong the conflict, leading to day after day Ukraine is weakened.<\/p>\n
Fifteen months after the U.S. President vowed to end the war within a day, \u201cWe’re basically back to square one,\u201d the New York Times quoted Russia-ukraine analyst James Schell as saying. \u201cThere is a growing recognition in Europe that there is a fundamental mismatch of interests and objectives between Ukraine and Russia and that the only sensible thing to do is to continue to stand with Ukraine and not allow Russia to win through military or political means,\u201d he said, ukrainian president Zelensky has\u201cLost 80% of his illusions\u201d that he can win Trump’s support.<\/p>\n
Zelensky was also reported to have arrived in Azerbaijan on Sunday. According to Ukraine, \u201cKiev Post\u201d reported on the 26th, this is the outbreak of the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the first time a Ukrainian leader visited the South Caucasus countries. The visit will focus on energy and defense cooperation, especially in the field of drone technology. Six bilateral documents were signed.<\/p>\n
According to RIA Novosti reported that Russian presidential press secretary Peskov 26, said Moscow has repeatedly called on Kiev to show courage to make the necessary decisions to reach an agreement. \u201cThe situation is going to get worse,\u201d he told reporters. \u201cThere will be more painful decisions to be made in Kiev. They are beginning to realize that, and that is the source of their hysterical reaction.\u201d<\/p>\n
At the same time, according to RBC-ukraine News Agency reported on the 26th, from the evening of the 25th to the morning of the 26th local time, Russia dispatched 144 attack drones from Kursk and other six directions to strike Ukraine. According to\u201cKiev Post\u201d reported that 25 and 26, Ukraine’s long-range drone attack on Russia’s largest oil refinery, one of the Slavic oil-yanos refinery and an important chemical plant. Reported that the move is part of Kiev’s ongoing efforts to weaken the industrial infrastructure that supports the Russian military.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
