“There is absolutely no place for complacency or to believe that everything is stabilised there. Far from it,” said Mr Grossi before the meeting.
This will be the fourth time the Director General crosses the frontline of the war to visit the power plant, whose six reactors have all been in shutdown for nearly eighteen months but still hold large amounts of nuclear fuel that must be kept adequately cooled.
In a brief press conference before heading south, Mr Grossi said he was feeling “quite positive” about the visit tomorrow.
Earlier in the day Mr Grossi and team met with Energy Minister German Galushchenko, nuclear regulator Oleh Korikov, and the head of Ukraine’s state-run nuclear energy firm Energoatom, Petro Kotin.
