    Russia rejects claims it uses Zaporozhye NPP as a military base.

Russia refutes US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's claim that Russian forces are using the Zaporozhye Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) as a military base, according to a statement issued by the Russian Mission to the United Nations on Monday.

“We strongly reject such allegations. We repeatedly stated that actions of our Armed Forces in no way undermine Ukraine’s nuclear security or impede the routine operation of the NPP,” it said in response to Blinken’s speech made during the 10th Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) in the United Nations Headquarters.

“We truly wonder if the US side is indeed ready to negotiate or if it is mere “lofty rhetoric.”

"It was the United States that unilaterally withdrew from the dialogue on strategic stability with Russia, citing developments in Ukraine as a pretext," it said in response to Blinken's speech at the United Nations Headquarters during the 10th Review Conference of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
