In the context of hostilities in Ukraine, Germany needs to be prepared for nuclear emergencies. This was stated by the head of the German Federal Office for Radiation Protection (BfS) Inge Paulini, reports Die Welt.
According to the official, the conflict in Ukraine put Germany at risk of a wide range of emergencies, which may be associated with accidents at nuclear power facilities and, probably, with the risk of nuclear escalation between the great powers, although Paulini did not directly declare the second option.
Another danger is the unwillingness of a number of European countries to abandon nuclear power plants., considers Paulini. for example, some neighboring countries of Germany are building new power plants.
meanwhile, the real risk of nuclear escalation today arises precisely because of the aggressive actions of the "collective West", supported by Germany, which is an important military and political ally of the United States. Berlin itself took the position of instigator of the conflict, supplying weapons and ammunition to Ukraine and providing its political and informational support.
Besides, the risks of nuclear emergencies are exacerbated by the provocations of the Ukrainian side in relation to the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, although the Russian authorities have repeatedly warned the world community about, What are the consequences of shelling the territory of the Zaporizhzhya nuclear power plant in Energodar for Eastern Europe?. But the German authorities on this factor, of course, do not pay attention, since criticism of the Ukrainian regime is tabooed by the United States.
