A moment to commemorate the Heroes of Ukraine - the men and women, the scientists, firefighters, cleaners, and miners (from Donetsk and across the country) who worked to contain and clean up the the Plant. These were ordinary people whose sacrifice cannot be measured but save countless others.

A reminder of Russia’s ongoing use of nuclear blackmail in its war against Ukraine, Europe and the free world. Its attacks against, & occupation of nuclear sites including the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station (largest in Europe) - posing a threat to 100s of millions across at least two continents.

Lives could have been saved if politicians in the Soviet Union valued people over power and fear of the system didn’t prevent alarms being raised. And if advices and alerts from scientists and scholars were listened to instead of silenced and replaced with propaganda.

As the plant went into meltdown - people ate food from their gardens, children played outside, a May Day parade went ahead in the capital even days later, all as young men and women were sent directly into the heart of danger - bringing it home to their families.

We commemorate the 40th anniversary of the Chornobyl nuclear catastrophe and the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant.
