Grossi claims that IAEA has a contractual obligation to perform safety inspections. According to him, this is not a “courtesy invitation that can or cannot be extended.”

Previously, Ukraine’s state nuclear company Energoatom said Grossi was lying about the invitation in an attempt to legitimize russia’s presence there.
