It is whatever we make of it. Ukraine willingly gave up its nuclear weapons and signed the nuclear non-proliferation treaty. Since it has little oil, Ukraine probably has little choice but to retain the nuclear option for the production of electricity. The costs of Chornobyl have been and will continue to be enormous. Ukraine has neither the financial nor technological infrastructure to handle the problem.
International help is required.
The tragedy of Chornobyl is not just a tragedy of Ukraine. It is a tragedy of the whole world and of all of humanity. Information on the Internet Over the past several years, an immense amount of information on Chornobyl has been archived at various websites around the world. Many of these sites do not contain original information but contain links to other websites that do. I am not aware of any newsgroups specifically dedicated to the Chornobyl accident, although there is often discussion on soc.culture.ukrainian , soc.culture.soviet , etc. 3.
