The director general of the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation (Rosatom) said Tuesday that risks are “very high” surrounding the safety of the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant. “There are landings (over the Kursk region), air raid sirens are constantly sounding, and, of course, the risks have not decreased,” Alexey Likhachev said in an interview with Russian journalist Pavel Zarubin in the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar. A portion of the interview was shared on Zarubin’s Telegram account. “I still assess the risks as very high.”
