The most horrible ecological disaster befell Ukraine and its people after the Chernobyl tragedy in April 1986. A great damage has been done to the agriculture, forests and people's health. The consequences of this explosion at the atomic power-station are tragic for the Ukrainian, Byelorussian and other nations.
