SOCHI, Russia, Oct 2 (Reuters) – Russian President Vladimir Putin on Thursday warned Ukraine that it was playing a dangerous game by striking the area near the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant and suggested that Moscow could retaliate against nuclear plants controlled by Ukraine. The nuclear power plant, Europe's largest, has been cut off from external power for more than a week and is being cooled by emergency diesel generators. Both Ukraine and Russia have blamed each other for cutting off the external power and for shelling the area. Putin said it was idiotic to blame Russia for shelling a nuclear power station that it controlled and said that the situation around the plant was on the whole under control.
