RUSSIA: MOSCOW: 11TH ANNIVERSARY OF CHERNOBYL NUCLEAR DISASTER
Russian/Nat
Eleven years after the world's worst nuclear disaster Russia is still remembering, for many the scars of Chernobyl will never fade.
At a special monument in Moscow on Saturday, hundreds of relatives and friends laid flowers and paid tribute to those who died in the catastrophe.
Chernobyl's reactor No. 4 exploded on April 26, 1986, spewing a radioactive cloud across Europe and releasing 200 times as much radiation as the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.
At least 32 people died at the time, but the estimates of those thought to have died subsequently or who are still suffering from radiation-related illnesses are in the thousands.
Also in Moscow, 15 cyclists set off on a trip around the world hoping to bring more attention to the terrible tragedy coupled with the hope that it will never happen again.
For these people the memory of Chernobyl is still as strong as ever.
Eleven years ago to the day - a nuclear reactor exploded - just south of the Belarus border in the Ukraine - raining radiation down on the people of both republics as well as Russia.
Dangerous radioactive dust spread to Europe and harmful fallout stretched all the way to the United States.
And time has not healed the wounds of Chernobyl - the doomed reactor at block number four is still claiming its victims.
Belarus and Ukraine claim that thousands if not millions of people suffer from nuclear contamination as a result of the explosion.
At a special monument in Moscow dedicated to the catastrophe, relatives and friends held a memorial service for those who died.
Civilians who lived in the contaminated zone are still counting the cost - most have not been allowed to return to their homes as the land is still radioactive.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
They allow us back to our homes in the contaminated zone only on the holiday of May 9th, those of us who lived there. It hurts to look up on it all, it hurts to walk on that land and to look upon our homes and where we worked.
SUPER CAPTION: Valentina Fyodorovna, Mother of Chernobyl victim
The reaction to the disaster from the government both at the time and subsequently has angered people as well.
For a start, Soviet officials didn't tell those living in the area of the accident until a week later.
And even though the victims of Chernobyl were later promised special privileges by the Soviet government, the collapse of communism and the following financial crisis facing Russia made special treatment almost impossible.
Benefits to Chernobyl survivors have been cut in the last few years by over 50 percent.
And the Russian government has never owned up to the full scope of the Chernobyl tragedy.
Soviet paranoia and secrecy has now become Russian indifference.
But not only those living near the nuclear site are still suffering.
Hundreds of soldiers and volunteers were sent to clean up the mess - many without the necessary protective clothing.
Over 160-thousand of the so-called Chernobyl liquidators (clean up crew) live in Russia these days and many are still paying the price.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
The liquidators (clean up crew) are not receiving what they should be receiving under the law, they don't have access to the rest homes and sanatoriums like they should, they are relegated to the most awful of places, the most awful of medical services. In short the government has not been thankful or grateful to this group of people.
SUPER CAPTION: Gerbin Zubovsky, Chernobyl Liquidator and head radiologist for Russian Ministry of Health
But the memory of those who died will also be kept alive by these men.
They set off from Moscow's Red Square on Saturday to cycle around the world -- all in memory of Chernobyl.

GNS RUSSIA: CHERNOBYL
(29 Oct 2000) Russian/Nat
Nearly 100 liquidators of the Chernobyl nuclear catastrophe in 1986 marched on Red Square in Moscow on Wednesday, in protest of their treatment by the Russian authorities.
The march culminated in the liquidators throwing away the medals awarded them for their service during the disaster.
Liquidators was the term given to the men who risked their lives to clean up after the Chernobyl disaster in the Ukraine in 1986.
Hundreds of soldiers and volunteers were sent to clean up the mess - many without the necessary protective clothing.
Over 160-thousand of the so-called Chernobyl liquidators (clean up crew) live in Russia these days and many are still paying the price.
Recently, the Russian Duma attempted to cut social benefits to members of the cleanup crew and their families.
100 of them, from Tula, a city 200 miles south of Moscow, arrived in Moscow on Wednesday to protest the move.
They threw the medals awarded for their service after the disaster on a monument located just outside Red Square to show their disgust.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
Through our action we wanted to show our discontent, and that's putting it lightly, with what they (the government) is doing to us. Voting for laws against which we are protesting, first of all they openly violate the constitution, our main book of law.
SUPER CAPTION: Vladimir Naumov, Organiser
The cleanup crews that went into action immediately after the world's worst nuclear disaster in 1986 endured debilitating levels of radiation.
They suffer from a range of chronic illnesses associated with radiation poisoning.
Former high-ranking officers now struggle to survive.
SOUNDBITE: (Russian)
During the liquidation I was a team-leader. I was working under the reactor, pushing wagons with radioactive waste from there. Our team was praised for its achievements, as a result of which I got my medal which I left here.
SUPER CAPTION: Alexander Bezumov, liquidator
After the disaster crews were promised workers' compensation and other privileges for life, but the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and inflation and chronic government cash shortages have left many facing cancer and other ailments without help from the government.

STORYLINE:
Ukrainians laid flowers and lit candles near the small Chernobyl victims' chapel in the capital Kiev early on Saturday, on the 17th anniversary of the world's worst nuclear disaster.
Hundreds of people came to honour the memory of their relatives, friends and colleagues at 1:23 a.m. (2223 GMT Friday), the time of the explosion at reactor No. 4 at the Chernobyl nuclear power plant, in the town of where most of Chernobyl station workers still live.
Some 4,400 people, in Ukraine alone, were killed in the aftermath of the explosion and subsequent fire, succumbing to radiation-related diseases contracted after taking part in the cleanup effort.
In all, about 650,000 so-called liquidators travelled to Chernobyl from all over the Soviet Union to try to eliminate the consequences of the disaster, which sent a huge radioactive cloud across Europe.
Ukraine's security service recently declassified secret files documenting malfunctions and safety violations at the plant long before the April 26, 1986 explosion.
The 121 documents, dating from 1971 to 1988, included a 1984 report on malfunctions in the third and fourth reactors, and information on an 1982 accident that caused the release of small doses of radiation.
They included a report sent to Moscow on the day of the explosion, saying the situation at the plant, some 130 kilometers (80 miles) north of Kiev, and surrounding areas had been taken under control.
More than 2.45 million (m) people have been hospitalised in Ukraine as of early 2002 with illnesses sparked by the disaster, including 473,400 children, according to the Health Ministry.
The most frequently noted Chernobyl-related diseases include thyroid and blood cancer, mental disorders and cancerous growths.
In all, 7 million (m) people in Belarus, Russia and Ukraine are estimated to suffer physical or psychological effects of radiation related to the Chernobyl catastrophe.
Ukraine shuttered Chernobyl's last reactor in December 2000, but many problems remain.
Russian Atomic Energy Minister Alexander Rumyantsev warned this week that the hastily constructed concrete shelter over the destroyed fourth reactor could collapse and alleged that Ukrainian officials were negligent in monitoring the facility.

RUSSIA: CHERNOBYL DISASTER PROTESTS (V)

VOICED BY: Jean Di Marino
XFA
Dozens of men who took part in the cleanup after the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster marched around the Kremlin on Wednesday to protest a draft amendment to a law that would allegedly cut their benefits.
As they marched, the lower house of parliament, the State Duma, narrowly rejected the amendment and returned it to committee for further work.
After the disaster, crews were promised workers' compensation and other privileges for life, but the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991 and inflation and chronic government cash shortages have left many facing cancer and other ailments without help from the government.

We Did Not Even Notice- Chernobyl & Kiev
On April 26th 1986 at 01:23 Moscow time, reactor 4 of the Chernobyl nuclear power plant exploded. The explosion ripped off the reactors 1000-ton lid and the building’s roof, releasing huge amounts of radioactive particles into the atmosphere, which spread all over Europe. First responders were exposed to a lethal dose of radiation. In the following months villages and cities around Chernobyl were evacuated, forming an exclusion zone with a diameter of roughly 37 kilometers. During that time 600.000 Liquidators tried to reduce the effects of the catastrophic accident at the destroyed power plant.
This Video is what came to my mind when I visited the city of Kiev and the Chernobyl exclusion zone with my brother.
