  • Story Text: Ukrainians interviewed by Reuters in Zaporizhzhia on Monday (March 17) expressed doubt that a phone call later today (March 18) between the president of Russia and the U.S. could return Europe's largest nuclear power plant under Ukrainian control.
    U.S. President Donald Trump will discuss a "power plant" bordering Ukraine and Russia in his call with Russia's Vladimir Putin on Tuesday, the White House said on Monday (March 17).
    The White House gave no details but may have been referring to the Russian-occupied Zaporizhzhia facility in Ukraine, Europe's largest nuclear plant. Russia and Ukraine have accused each other of risking an accident at the plant with their actions.
