The head of Russian state nuclear firm Rosatom plans to meet International Atomic Energy Agency head Rafael Grossi in Russia in the middle of February, the Interfax news agency cited him as saying on Monday.

Alexei Likhachev, the Rosatom chief executive, said he would discuss nuclear security issues with Grossi, as well as the safety of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in Ukraine.

Russia took over the Zaporizhzhia plant, the biggest in Europe, shortly after invading Ukraine in 2022, and the IAEA is monitoring its safety as hostilities continue in the area.
