The United States said on Sunday that Russia does not want to acknowledge the imminent radiological danger at Ukraine’s Zaporizhia nuclear power plant, adding that this is why Moscow has blocked the issuance of the final draft of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty.
“Only the Russian Federation decided to block consensus on the Final Document at the conclusion of the Tenth Review Conference of the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons,” the State Department said in a statement.
Russia did this in order to block the wording recognizing the imminent radiological danger at the Zaporizhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine.”
The statement comes after Russia blocked an agreement on Friday on a final draft revision of the United Nations treaty, a cornerstone of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty, due to criticism of Moscow’s actions in Ukraine.
