UN nuclear watchdog chief Rafael Grossi will travel to Russia's Kaliningrad region on April 5 for talks on the Moscow-held Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant plant in southern Ukraine, officials said. Grossi said last week while in Ukraine that he was working on a compromise security plan for the site and warned of increased military activity around it. "Grossi will visit Kaliningrad...as part of his ongoing consultations aimed at ensuring the protection of Ukraine's Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant during the military conflict," the International Atomic Energy Agency spokesman told AFP on April 3.
