Medvedev threatened Europe with a strike on nuclear power plants

Ukraine and other countries in Eastern Europe could be subjected to strikes on atomic power plants and nuclear facilities, warned the Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council, Dmitry Medvedev.

The reason for his publication in „Telegram“, in which the threats are made, are the claims in the supposedly power-related Mash channel about attempts to attack a nuclear power plant in Russia with British Storm Shadow missiles.

These data have not been confirmed by any independent Russian or international media and agency, the regional authorities in the two districts in the region, Smolensk and Kaluzhka, have not made such announcements.

However, Medvedev, former president and prime minister of Russia, states that „if the attempt to attack the Smolensk nuclear power plant with NATO missiles is confirmed, it is necessary to consider a scenario of a one-time Russian attack on the South Ukrainian nuclear power plant (Nikolaev region – note ed.) The Rivne NPP (Northwestern Ukraine, near Rivne/Rovno – note ed.) and the Khmelnytsky NPP, and also on nuclear sites in Eastern Europe.

There is nothing to shrink from anymore.“

The Khmelnytsky NPP in western Ukraine is the same one for which last week in Bulgaria a proposal was again made to provide the reactors for the unfinished Belene NPP days before the visit of President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The Russian Ministry of Defense did not speak about the strikes mentioned by Medvedev and Mash. In a statement distributed by Russian agencies, there is talk of intercepted Ukrainian attacks on Russia with S-200 missiles, retooled in an offensive version and directed against the annexed Crimean peninsula, against the Russian Rostov and Kaluga (adjacent to Smolensk) regions.
