    In March 2022, Russia did the unthinkable: Eight years after the first Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2014, thousands of Russian troops crossed the border as Vladimir Putin carried out his long-standing threat to invade the country again. Chernobyl, home to the world’s most notorious nuclear power station, was captured and hundreds of people were trapped. Then Russian troops occupying the area began to withdraw. Now, more than two years since the war began, Carte Blanche goes inside the exclusion zone to examine why keeping Chernobyl out of Russian hands was critical to Ukraine’s fightback.

    I don’t understand why South Africans are getting so riled up. I feel like a missed the memo or smt but I didn't because the USSR is known to have helped freedom fighters during apartheid. YA'LL missed the memo. If smt goes down in Chernobyl, the effects can reach as far as the USA, if not further. It takes one nuclear tragedy to effect multiple countries. It's the closest thing we see to apocalypse. The stuff of nightmares. And it's fascinating. That's my take. Carte Blanche is firstly and foremost entertainment, and sometimes guised as investigative journalism.

      @@DaSnowFangs as a general principle, we must consume a fair amount of news with skepticism. Starting point with this one is what is declared upfront by Carte Blanche, that they were invited to Ukraine by, Ukraine 'media'. This is on the back of war between Ukraine and Russia. Everything we are hearing here of alleged Russian transgression is from Ukraine 'media'. Very much a one sided affair with no effort by Cart Blanche to balance this story by seeking commentary from ones accused of 'aggression'.
      Then there's Chernobyl nuclear accident. This isn't a vaccum. ANC led govt is planning as part of SA's energy mix is to have more power gen from nuclear. It is common cause that there's well funded green energy agenda in SA that wants to croud out whatever energy it deems not green, and this Chernobyl nuclear disaster fits perfectly onto dangers of nuclear, solidifying their case. Then there's issue of SA's historical ties with Russia. History that goes back to apartheid SA with SA's liberation movements getting support from Soviet Union (now loosely called Russia). History of apartheid govt getting support from western countries as West waged cold war against communism, and black bodies in SA and elsewhere being collateral damage. A history that some of us are conscious of, that led to dissolving of Soviet Union.
      So I as black South African in light of what I've enunciated am skeptical when Carte Blanche airs this episode on chernobyl disaster on the back of Russia Ukraine war (and Russian is portrayed a villain).
      I like Carte Blanche. It's one of the best investigative journalist driven programmes South Africa has.
      This episode however is more of some sponsored programme, that in the light of the geo politics in the said conflict zone with its ramification in South Africa is sponsored propaganda.

      I don't think we actually have that much to worry about. It's been about 40 years since, and they've updated knowledge, safety regulations, and design. Plus, we're one of the few countries that are, at least for now, the least exposed to natural disasters. That is something that gives me concern. We're having way more and more flooding and disastrous storms...

      It's really not that difficult. Russia illegally invaded Ukrainiane (again) in 2022. They said they wouldn't and they did. 100s of thousands of people have died, mainly Russian and millions displaced. None of this would have happened if Russia hadn't illegally invaded. There is no need for right of reply, especially given Russia is a country with a non-existent independent press.

I don't think it's wise to 'turn off' M-Net because they covered a story that began in 1986, and became news again in 2022 under completely different circumstances.
