Moscow says Russia must control #Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant, but open to working with US
Russia is ready for international cooperation over the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, including with the United States.
However, the facility must be under Russian control, said Alexei Likhachev, head of the state nuclear corporation Rosatom.
The six reactors are not in operation, and the plant relies on external power to keep its nuclear material cool and prevent a catastrophic accident.
