<p>My predecessors and I have maintained regular engagement with our Ukrainian colleagues following the Russian Federation’s unlawful invasion of Ukraine, and its reckless actions against nuclear facilities, including at the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power plant and Chornobyl Exclusion Zone.</p><p>In these conversations we have paid tribute to the immense bravery of Ukrainian staff who continue to safely operate nuclear facilities across Ukraine under the most extreme pressure. We have committed funding to support nuclear security in Ukraine, including up to £2.3m of UK funding to the International Atomic Energy Agency which has been made available to support nuclear security activities in Ukraine.</p>
