Video from the memorial action "Chernobyl. 35", which took place on the night of April 25-26, 2021. in the city of Pripyat.
The Chernobyl disaster is the largest environmental disaster of our time, which occurred at 1 o'clock. 23 minutes April 26, 1986, when the reactor of the 4th power unit of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded.
35 years have passed since the explosion of the fourth reactor at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant. But is it possible, even after 35 years, to say that the history of Chernobyl is over?
Over such a long period of time, a new chapter has been added more than once in Chernobyl history. Still, it must be said that a lot of positive things have happened in 35 years. The territory of the Chernobyl zone has changed a lot during this time. One thing can be said with certainty - no one will ever forget about Chernobyl, just like no one will ever forget about other historical events of a global scale. The fact that the history of mankind was divided into two parts: before Chernobyl and after Chernobyl is a truly unique event.
Now, large-scale changes are taking place in the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Compared to the 90s and even the beginning of the 2000s, the Zone has changed quite a lot.
The lessons of the accident that have occurred over this long time suggest that in the newest technological era, humanity will completely change the view of eternal values.
We must remember that we are responsible for everything we do, and the Chernobyl disaster will remain an excellent example for us forever.
