to cause the russian federation that lee took place only at noon of 4 hours later than planned webpage tribute to the courage of the agency representative their, their readiness to work literally under fire. ukrainian fire would like to ask you, director general, what was the impact on your work or all of the attempt to buy ukrainian armed forces to abort to the mission? how can you comment upon of these the activities by the ukrainian side, in the context of threats to safety and security of the station and the safety of the edges? his staff? i would like to address a similar question to the secretary general. the d. s. s. us in the u. n. d s. s, a staff were part of the i a missions on they were dealing with the issues of safety and security. a was a duty to assess the situation. no, and no of all everything that could create a risk for it. what do you or staff talk about the risks that were created for the mission by the ukrainian side. mr. president, in the it's disappointment with

a i a visit to the and p p. k. i didn't want to hide zalinski advisor, mr. potter log said in particular that i quote, all of these are mediation missions, a very ineffective and extremely cowardly, extremely unprofessional, and of quota. according to him, the mission was never ready to work in extreme conditions and this applies not only just for the agency but to the u. one. the characteristic of this ukranian a government employ the international organizations. well, we don't trust them from the start and of quote one mister fidela. all so doubted the fact that in 2 hours time that i could have conducted wide expertise and guided by that anger cable resulted not to give up on his plans. despite the fact that the eye representatives were this station on the 2nd of september, the cavers,

she undertook yet another unsuccessful attempt to capture the station. but this was foiled by the russian armed forces. since then, the key of regime continues attacking the station almost every day. on the 3rd of september, the armed forces over your crime use 8 drones with suspended munitions. but thanks to our russian romped forces, the drones nearing the station were blocked. after that, they were forced to drop their grenades in desert, deserted areas more. oh, more than 1.5 kilometers away from the station. on the 4th of september they ukrainian forces. he used a combat to u. a. v. to strike. as a result of what was done by the russian armed forces, the drone loss control and crash kit one kilometer away from the n p. p. on the 5th of september, there was another shelling by either ukrainians over the n p p. one of them hit the roof of building number one with through its fuel assemblies and solid radioactive

waste. according to the information of our minister of defense, the shelling of the station and then a gordon is conducted from the other side of the co host go water reservoir. namely from the towns of new capo madigan his mighty africa, they are under the control of the ukrainian armed forces. the ukrainian attacks resulted in the fact that out of a 7 electric lies 5, a damaged we call on the members of security council. and you and leadership a strongly condemned is from occasions by the case they are aimed and not only against the staff of the station, but also against the international civil servants. i. e, e, a staff, the human shield of by a ukrainian armed forces. also the people in our go down to day only there were 5 artillery shelling of that place. we know directed general, all of that the citizens gave you a collective appeal, a route asking that this be stopped. and this is something that was covered very widely and mass media. and you did say that you will do everything you can

on detail on this. what is your impression from your interaction with the people of annette godaddy. we continue doing everything we can to make sure that the priority and p p works safely, ensuring its functioning as something that's being done. our stand a technical personnel with the support of russian specialists. so father radiation, situational has station is normal. but a of the publications by the k of regime continues, there is no guarantee that there won't be serious consequences and the responsibility for that lies fully with care. and it's western bankers, and all other members of security council who so far have not found in themselves the courage to call things their proper name and kallen k of to stop it's reckless said acts against these upper orgy and p p which create a real threat to international peace and security, we expect that today security out council members will have enough courage to do

that so as to prevent a potential radiation disaster. i thank you joe, we'll see lower group. i think we're presented with the russian federation for his statement. and then they'll give the floor to the united states. thank you, mr. president. and thank you, secretary general, guiterres and director general grossi. we appreciate your continued support to ensure the operational safety and security of this upper easy out nuclear power plant, despite russia's ongoing attacks. and refusal to silence guns and withdraw from ukraine, so that the situation can be resolved peacefully and diplomatically. first, let us commend the parties involved in facilitating the visit of the international atomic energy agencies team. the visit allowed them to carry out their important ongoing work. despite the increasingly dangerous situation with his,

with his operates, he had facility the united states welcomes the technical support of the a's mission to the operating facility we. we support continued unhindered and safe. i a access to the facility to that end, it is essential that russia allow ukrainian operators to implement any and all measures the a team and ukrainian operators deem important for the safe and secure operation of the plant to decrease the risk of a nuclear incident. colleagues, this is a matter of international nuclear safety and security. the potential danger here is enormous. it concerns us all. and so once again, we support ukraine's call for the demilitarization of the area. surrounding is upper each facility and we demand rushes, immediate withdrawal from ukraine,

sovereign territory, despite russia, song and dance here today to avoid acknowledging responsibility for its actions. russia has no right to expose the world to unnecessary risk and the possibility of a nuclear catastrophe. worse, this is a situation entirely of rushes, making. the current danger is upper etivia, is a result of rushes unprovoked, and unlawful invasion of ukraine. and specifically, it is a result of russia's premeditated march 4th seizure of this plant. the international community called for russia to avoid the nuclear plant. instead, russian troops struck and seized the facility, jeopardizing the $87.00 pillars of nuclear safety and secured. russia continues to conduct military operations around the plant. every day russia

controls the plant increases the risk of a nuclear incident over the weekend showing once again led to the disconnection of an external power lines putting at risk the plants operations. while we understand that the plant is currently generating enough power to operate its cooling systems, rushes continued military presence in the area will continue to put the plant in the entire region in serious danger. we continue to urge russia to end all military operations at or near ukraine's nuclear facilities into return, full controlled to ukraine. the i. e 's report. instead details conditions drastically increasing the stress interests on the operators and thus unacceptably raising the risk of human error. the report also notes continued combat operations in the vicinity in the installation of military equipment and personnel within the

plant, which also contribute to the risk of nuclear disaster. i want to mentioned here that we joined the director general in commending the staff at all nuclear facilities for their endurance and resilience in keeping the sites running in a safe and secure way. and it's the conflict mister president nick opposed brave mer recently told a media outlet, and i quote, our biggest challenge is that we can't predict what's going to happen tomorrow, or even if there's going to be a tomorrow. another ukrainian citizen was quoted saying, quote, all of us are just scared all the time. i am old, i have diabetes. if anything happens, i will only have time to lie on the floor and close my eyes. no one should have to live like this. there is no excuse for the unnecessary risk of

a nuclear incident. no one should be questioning if there will be a tomorrow. the plant in the electricity it produces belong to ukraine. any attempt by russia to disconnect this app, ricci, or nuclear power plant from ukraine and direct a power generates toward russia, would be highly provocative, selfish, and short sighted. we reject all efforts by russia to use ukraine's electric grid as a pawn in this, in justified unjustified war in ukraine's nuclear power plant is a military shield or deployment site. russia is responsible for this crisis and it can also resolve it. now, the solution is not complicated. the russian for iteration must and its reckless behavior and immediately withdraw its troops. not only from the areas surrounding separate, but from all of ukraine. ry cynicism from russia,

claiming profound concern about the risk of catastrophe, will not cut it. it is obvious that the fastest way to fix this is for russia to withdraw immediately. unfortunately, for all of us, the russian federation showed its true colors when it obstructed the outcome. at the 10th review conference of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty, russia alone block consensus on a final document. that should come as no surprise given that russia's actions during its further invasion of ukraine have undermined the safe should secure and peaceful use of nuclear energy. the exact kind of issues, the n p t and it's review conference are called upon to address this lack of commitment to the peaceful uses of nuclear energy calls into question rushes, reliability as a supplier of nuclear material equipment and technology. the world's responsible

n p t. states parties have called for russia to end all military activity near the zapatista facility. and rightfully return full control of the facility to ukraine. now is the time for russia to listen before it's too late. as the toll of this conflict on civilians grows even higher, i hope each of us on behalf of the countries we represent. will underscore in this chamber that russia must silence its guns. withdraw from ukraine and embrace diplomacy. general statements of concern or appeals to all parties will not help resolve this crisis. all parties are not responsible for the situation. russia is, and it is incumbent on russia to show now with its actions that it respects the un charter by respecting ukraine sovereignty and territorial integrity. thank you miss

preston. joe, i think the representative over the united states for his statement, i now give the floor to the representative of the united kingdom. thank you president. thank. he said to general, thank you director general grossey. i'd like to start by commending the i e, a director general grossey and his staff at for their visit to zap her asia, a nuclear power plant under extremely challenging circumstances. we welcome the i e a's ongoing presence there. and i also offer my thanks to ukraine for helping to facilitate this visit. the i. e. a has assessed that the physical integrity of his upper asia nuclear power plant has been violated several times. and with the

publication of today's report, the i, a e, a has confirmed the presence of russian military personnel, vehicles and equipment in the plant. we understand that in some cases, russian military equipment has been as close as 60 meters from the nuclear reactors. the report also confirms the immense stress and pressure under which the brave ukrainian staff at this plant are operating. they are no longer workers, but hostages being held at gunpoint by choosing to

invade or nuclear power plant and puddings. up her easier in the crossfire. russia is playing roulette with nuclear safety. as long as russia's occupation of the plant continues, it's safe and secure operation cannot be insured. any measures to address nuclear safety at the plant should therefore involve the full withdrawal of russian troops and personnel. president. this is the 3rd meeting that russia has called on this issue in recent weeks. but we should be under no illusion. the situation that separate here is entirely of russia's making. it is russia's invasion that has

disrupted the operation of nuclear facilities across ukraine. it is russia that his jeopardizing the safety of millions in the region who would be affected by nuclear incident. and it is russia that can resolve the situation by immediately withdrawing its forces from zap parisha and all of you cried and ceasing. it's senseless and reckless aggression. thank you, president, joy moore. i think the representative of the united kingdom for his treatment i now gave the floor to the representative of brazil. thank you mister president. allowed me to start my expressing or precision to the secretary general for his briefing and to the director general of the i. e for the visit of his team to

w 2 m. for his report. mr. present last week. the i e. a mission to there's a pretty, it's a nuclear power plant, was a positive development emitter conflict. in which moments of good news happening few and far between the presence of the agencies inspectors allows us to grasp the real dimension of the risks to the safety of those nuclear installations. avoiding and watching nations security council holding open meeting on the situation that these operation nuclear power plant in ukraine had from the united nations chief antonio terrace, urging russia and ukraine to agree a demilitarized perimeter around the russia. housing for richer power plant. also heard from the russian ambassador saying, he regretted that the i did not blame ukraine. and we heard from the u. s. and the
