Russian Foreign Ministry makes cynical statement regarding Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a cynical statement regarding the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP), calling the nuclear power plant a "Russian nuclear facility."

This was reported by the Russian propaganda agency TASS.

"The ZNPP is a Russian nuclear facility. Transferring control over it to Ukraine or any other country is impossible... The employees of the ZNPP are Russian citizens, and their lives cannot be put at risk, especially considering the "atrocities" of the Ukrainian Armed Forces," the statement from the Russian Foreign Ministry reads.

The Russian Foreign Ministry emphasized that "joint operation of the plant with any state is unacceptable."
