According to the politician, the authorities are hiding the real scale of the disaster from Ukrainians.

“We are shocked by what is happening in Chernobyl. They don't tell us the truth, they don't tell us anything. And the fact that radiation rises, and that people change. Because the background is scary and the fact that this threat could be no less than 86, what, they don’t hear? Or are the deputies advocating 50 million for the construction of a biathlon building, a biathlon base?.. Do you understand what is happening in Chernobyl? This is not for tomorrow, not for later - this is now. We still didn’t have enough radiation in 86,” said Chervonenko.
