High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy Josep Borrell stated on Monday, at a press conference, that the "nuclear gamble" surrounding the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant "has to stop," APA reports citing Tele Trader.

Borrell noted that current events in the aforementioned area indicate "playing with fire." He added that the latest news on the situation at the power plant, shared by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is "increasingly worrisome."

Borrell urged Moscow to refrain from its "reckless behavior" in the region, as the country has shown "disdain for international law" and ignored "basic principles of nuclear safety."
