UN adopts Ukraine's resolution on nuclear facility security
The United Nations General Assembly has adopted a Ukraine-initiated resolution concerning the security and protection of nuclear facilities, including the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on X on July 11.
"Another significant step toward restoring respect for the UN Charter and international law was taken," he said.
The resolution is titled "Safety and Security of Ukraine's Nuclear Facilities, including the Zaporizhzhya NPP."
"The resolution reiterates the need to demilitarize and de-occupy ZNPP in light of Russia's failure to comply with IAEA governing bodies' resolutions," Zelenskyy said.
"This vote builds on the discussions and decisions made at the first Peace Summit, where point one of the Peace Formula, 'Radiation and nuclear safety,' was a key issue."
He expressed gratitude to all partners for their assistance in restoring security to areas affected by Russian aggression.
"By working together, we can protect fundamental international law norms and shared values," Zelenskyy said.
