LVIV, Ukraine (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said he agreed the parameters of a possible mission of the International Atomic Energy Agency to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear plant at talks on Thursday with Turkey's leader and the U.N. secretary-general.

Following talks in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv, Zelenskiy told a news conference that Russia should immediately withdraw its forces and stop shelling from the nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine.
