This is pure deranged nonsense even IAEA says it https://www.france24.com/en/tv-shows/the-interview/20230629-iaea-saw-no-evidence-moscow-planning-attack-on-zaporizhia-nuclear-plant-but-anything-can-happen
IAEA is not confirming it, but I think it's a stretch to get "pure deranged nonsense" from that quote.
Thinking that Russia would blow up a nuclear power plant that Russia controls is deranged nonsense.
...in your opinion. As per your link, the IAEA does not share your certainty.
In the opinion of any sane person, and what IAEA says is that there is no substance to the conspiracy theory being peddled here.
It is fascinating how personal biases shape our communications and beliefs.
i've seen this guy in many ukraine related threads shilling for the ruskies
Right, Russia just keeps blowing up their own pipelines, dams and nuclear power plants. Imagine being a grown ass adult and actually believing that. When nord stream was blown up all the media in the west screeched that it was Russia who did it. Now slowly admissions are coming out that it wasn't Russia. Yet, here we are again each time a piece of infrastructure Russia controls is under attack, people inexplicably think that Russia destroyed it.
The leading theory with the nord stream pipeline explosion is that putin ordered it to make "business as usual" not an option for those in russias political sphere who would have prefered the resumption of gas to europe over Putins goals in Ukraine. no pipeline, no way back. ultimately no one knows for sure who did it but thanks for bringing it up.
"Now slowly admissions are coming out that it wasn't Russia."
nope. Russia is still the lead suspect.
Russia blew up the nova khakovka dam in an attempt to stop Ukrainians launching amphibious assaults accross the dniepr and taking their land back.
Now that Ukrainians have a foothold on the left bank of the dniepr near Kherson all of a sudden there is talk of a radiation release from the NNP conveniently placed westwards of kherson with easterly and south easterly prevailing winds.
Perhaps that's the leading theory on 4chan or wherever you get your news from, but none of the mainstream western media suggests anything of the sort. In fact, the latest western theory is actually that Ukraine did it:
Thanks for letting me know that there is no point continuing this discussion since I'm talking to a conspiracy theorist as opposed to a rational and informed person.
A basic search debunks a lot of what is in that article

They blew up a dam they controlled. why not a nuclear power plant?
Has Russia claimed that?
No but they didn't claim the mass graves in bucha either so i am reluctant to trust their silence
