A representative of Greenpeace voiced his version of the events in Nyonoks in an interview with Ukrainian media
Recall that Rosatom, in a publication on the accident in the Arkhangelsk region, noted that a short-term increase in the radiation background near Severodvinsk could arise due to the situation with radioisotope power sources.
According to Alimov, he doubts such a conclusion.
Alimov:
A number of further statements by Mr. Alimov from Greenpeace made for the Ukrainian portal Obozrevatel were more streamlined. The Ukrainian interlocutor asked Alimov, could it be an accident with the Petrel complex?
R. Alimov:
The representative of Greenpeace, commenting on the words "Rosatom" about radioisotope power sources, switched from the words about the "reactor" to a discussion of the concept of RTGs. These are capsules - radioisotope thermoelectric generators that were used back in the USSR. According to Alimov, they were used in some Soviet lighthouses, where the decaying element was strontium-90.
Greenpeace representative:
And again about the reactor:
There is one question to all this publication in the Ukrainian media: why are Ukrainian reporters so interested in the environmental situation in the Arkhangelsk region of Russia and do not care at all in the Kiev region of Ukraine, where a huge repository is created for European nuclear waste in the contaminated area in the exclusion zone near Chernobyl ? Yes, and Greenpeace is silent about this.
