, published in the paper's Opinion section on Tuesday, in response to their article about a battle that took place surrounding a nuclear power plant in Ukraine. “This is a game of Russian roulette the world can’t afford to play!” she warned. Brinkley added that it is “nothing short of a miraculous stroke of luck” that “the world dodged a catastrophe by avoiding a massive meltdown in the Russian assault on the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant last week.
The model continued, “Every Ukrainian life lost in this unwarranted invasion would be for nothing if the land Ukrainians love is contaminated with radiation and uninhabitable. It would be an unthinkable loss for Russians, too, and a meltdown could result in mass evacuations in Europe, as radiation knows no boundaries.
Brinkley concluded her cautionary letter by pointing out that “Aside from all-out nuclear war, nuclear plant meltdowns pose the greatest risk of radiation exposure. An international expert panel is urgently needed to develop rules protecting nuclear plants during warfare. We can’t just hope we’ll be so lucky next time.”
