US officials watch talks on Zaporizhzhia plant as safety concerns linger

The head of the International Atomic Energy Agency met with Rosatom’s chief in Moscow on Saturday, discussing the safety, security and safeguards at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant.

Rafael Grossi said the exchange was comprehensive and timely, adding that senior Russian officials also took part in the discussion. He noted that the International Atomic Energy Agency and Rosatom remain in constant contact about the possibility of restarting the plant’s operations.

Grossi warned that a full resumption of activity will not be easy. He said the process will require time and a series of concrete steps to address the plant’s current condition.

US officials, monitoring the talks closely, have reiterated the need for any restart to meet strict international safety standards. The outcome of the Moscow meeting is expected to influence diplomatic efforts in the region and shape future negotiations on the plant’s future.
