The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has provided Ukraine with more than €19 million in nuclear safety equipment and devices since the beginning of the full-scale war, according to a report on the agency’s website dated July 24. Director General Rafael Mariano Grossi highlighted the significance of this aid in ensuring Ukraine’s nuclear safety amid the ongoing conflict. The assistance includes a comprehensive range of technical equipment, medical devices, and other essential items designed to bolster Ukraine’s nuclear infrastructure and safety protocols.
These supplies are part of a broader effort by the IAEA to support Ukraine’s energy sector and protect its nuclear facilities from potential threats. The war has placed immense pressure on Ukraine’s nuclear infrastructure, necessitating urgent international support to maintain safety standards and prevent nuclear accidents. The aid underscores the agency’s commitment to upholding nuclear safety and security, even in times of global conflict.
The €19 million in assistance reflects the scale of the IAEA’s aid initiative and the international community’s recognition of Ukraine’s critical need for nuclear safety measures. As the war continues, the IAEA’s role in supplying technical expertise and essential equipment remains vital to Ukraine’s efforts to safeguard its nuclear facilities and ensure the continued operation of its energy sector without compromising safety.
