Spotlight: Ukraine sees no alternative to nuclear power 30 years after Chernobyl
April 26, 2016
KIEV, April 26 (Xinhua) — Thirty years have passed since the Chernobyl power plant disaster, one of the world’s worst nuclear accidents, which has caused widespread environmental pollution and left the areas around the plant uninhabitable for centuries or even millennia to come. The anniversary of the catastrophe is another reminder that nuclear energy could become a major threat to the world if it is not handled with care and caution. Yet, many experts argue that currently, nuclear power is much safer than it was three decades ago and its role in Ukraine’s energy mix is irreplaceable.
Spotlight: Lessons of Chernobyl, Fukushima should be learned to avoid future nuclear tragedies
April 26, 2016
KIEV, April 26 (Xinhua) — Tuesday marks the 30th anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster in today’s Ukraine, but many painful lessons have not been learned. In March 2011, the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant in Japan was disabled after explosions, a top-level disaster. Some Ukrainian nuclear safety experts believe that the Fukushima tragedy was preventable given the Chernobyl experience, but human negligence had left the plant unprepared for the earthquake and tsunami.
Se souvenir, transmettre, représenter la catastrophe

30 Years After the Chernobyl Disaster, a Nuclear Menace Still Hides in Plain Sight
April 25, 2016
CHERNOBYL, Ukraine — It was a fine spring night, people peacefully sleeping as weekday passed into weekend, until Chernobyl’s fourth nuclear reactor blew up. Oleksandr Galuh recalls that night well. “My mother woke up as the windows shattered,” Galuh, then a fourth-grader in Pripyat, a town not too far from Chernobyl, remembers. “She thought it was a thunderstorm.”
30 Years After the Chernobyl Meltdown, Why Is the Ukrainian Government Pushing Nuclear Energy?
April 25, 2016
Or, how Ukraine learned to stop worrying and love its nuclear power plants. Later this year, the largest movable structure on earth—essentially a colossal steel tomb shaped like an oversized airplane hangar—is scheduled to begin its slow journey along a rail system, traveling at a glacial pace of 33 feet an hour. Its destination: the crumbling ruins of Chernobyl’s reactor number four, which, 30 years after the worst nuclear meltdown in history, continues to ooze radiation like a wound that refuses to heal.
Decades after Chernobyl, Ukraine hooked on nuclear more than ever
April 25, 2016
It’s the result of war, politics and economics. Three decades after the world’s worst nuclear accident, the home of the shuttered Chernobyl power plant remains more reliant than ever on nuclear power. When a botched test in the early hours of April 26, 1986, blew apart the reactor’s core and spewed huge amounts of radiation into the atmosphere, nuclear power accounted for about a quarter of the energy mix of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic. Today, nuclear power produces more than half of Ukraine’s energy — the result of war, politics and economics.
