Russia has called on NATO leaders to discuss the conditions at Ukraine's Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant during their upcoming summit, warning that an accident at the facility could impact NATO member territories. Ukraine had previously raised concerns that Russia might be planning to blow up the plant, leading to a radioactive disaster.
