Raed Arafat It is normal for Romania to be prepared in case of a nuclear attack in Ukraine

Raed Arafat says that he can prepare for the possibility of a nuclear accident happening in Ukraine in Zaporozhye, or for a possible nuclear attack launched by Russia, even if there is a very low probability that this will actually happen.

Raed Arafat declared that it is normal to have preparations for any kind of scenario since anything can happen at any time, even independent of war, but that does not mean that the world should panic.

There is no reason to panic at this point. It is normal to talk about this topic. Second, it's normal to prepare for any scenario, even if we know it's very unlikely. If the population hears that someone is preparing, it is not because we know something is going to happen, but because it is our obligation to prepare and be ready regardless.

It may be an industrial nuclear incident, which has absolutely nothing to do with the war, and which may also be something related. It's about tactical weapons. Their impact or effect is limited. It is not an impact that is hundreds of kilometers away. That's one aspect.

Zaporozhye and CNCAN said that the distance makes any effect limited on Romania. That's the assessment that was done there and that we ourselves requested and that clearly says that the impact will be minimal.
