> MOSCOW, Aug 31 (Reuters) – **Russia welcomes the idea that IAEA experts could stay at Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant on a permanent basis, Mikhail Ulyanov, Russia’s representative to the international organisations in Vienna, said on Wednesday.**
> 
> A Reuters reporter travelling in a convoy with the team from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) from Kyiv, the Ukrainian capital, said **it was likely the inspectors would overnight in the nearby city of Zaporizhzhia before visiting the plant, which is on territory controlled by Russia,** on Thursday.
> 
> **Russia captured the plant, Europe’s largest, in early March** ***(Or late February according to some reports- either way Ukraine has not held the nuclear plant for six months)***
