Nuclear power must not be instrument of war in Ukraine: Macron

Published by

French President Emmanuel Macron warned Friday against the use of civilian nuclear facilities as an instrument of war in Ukraine, where a Russian-controlled plant has been disconnected from the power grid.

“War in any case must not undermine the nuclear safety of the country, the region and all of us. Civil nuclear power must be fully protected,” Macron said during a visit to Algeria.
