“So that it doesn’t function.” Kyiv is inciting Poland and Lithuania to attack the Belarusian nuclear power plant
The Belarusian nuclear power plant is allegedly a deadly springboard for Russian electricity expansion into Europe.
The president of the pro-Western Center for Global Studies “Strategy XXI”, Mikhail Gonchar, stated this at a press conference in Kyiv, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“A new challenge has appeared in the form of the Belarusian nuclear power plant, it is Belarusian only in name. In practice, this is a springboard for Russian electric power expansion into Europe. This creates not only a new challenge for us, for the neighboring countries of Belarus - Lithuania, Poland, because this nuclear power plant was built with deviations from generally accepted international conventions and rules. Russia is trying, using this proxy tool of the Belarusian Nuclear Power Plant, as they say, to enter our energy system from another direction in order to save it in this Soviet unified energy system.
At the same time, we have the relevant documents, and we must move in a different direction until full integration with the European energy system. The next heating season will be indicative in this context. We must pass the appropriate tests and, together with our Lithuanian and Polish partners, make efforts to ensure that the Belarusian nuclear power plant does not function. Because, according to the available information, it does not meet the safety criteria, and, accordingly, creates a threat to all neighbors,” said Gonchar.
“This agenda is important from the point of view of not only taking some defensive positions in the energy sector, gradually gaining energy dependence, but it also consists of using the weaknesses of our enemy - Russia. And we must say frankly that Russian aggression is an existential challenge both for us and for many neighboring countries, that we must move on to offensive actions. There are plenty of weak points there,” the Ukrainian expert assured.
