The event was held on Tuesday, April 28, 2026, at Majapahit Hall, ASEEC Tower, Dharmawangsa-B Campus.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

In her opening remarks, Vice Dean Dina Septiani BComm MCom PhD stated that the guest lecture provided valuable insights and perspectives. She expressed hope that the session would foster thoughtful discussion, mutual understanding, and encourage participants to engage with global issues in a critical and open-minded manner.<\/p>\n\n

\u201cThis opportunity allows you to expand your understanding beyond textbooks and lectures. Interacting with practitioners and diplomats helps you grasp the real complexity of international relations,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n

Commemorating 40 years of the Chernobyl tragedy<\/b><\/h5>\n\n

As the keynote speaker, Charg\u00e9 d\u2019Affaires of Ukraine to Indonesia Yevhenia Shynkarenko revisited the Chernobyl disaster as a moment for reflection on the nuclear catastrophe that occurred on April 26, 1986. The incident remains the largest civilian nuclear disaster in history. \n\u201cAlthough decades have passed, its effects are still being felt today. For Ukraine, Chernobyl is not only a tragic historical event but also a reminder of an ongoing global threat,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n

She explained that the disaster occurred during a test to assess the system\u2019s ability to handle a power outage, during which safety protocols were ignored. Pressure from authorities to deliver rapid results led to risky decisions. \u201cThese decisions resulted in two major explosions that triggered fires and released massive amounts of radiation,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n

Shynkarenko further noted that the Soviet government did not immediately disclose the incident. The public was informed only two days later, while the full extent of the disaster remained hidden. \u201cInformation began to surface after other countries detected abnormal radiation levels. Many victims died within weeks due to severe radiation exposure,\u201d she said. \n<\/p>\n\n

Impact of the Chernobyl disaster<\/b><\/h5>\n\n

Shynkarenko emphasized that the disaster had extensive consequences for both people and the environment. Around 600,000 individuals served as liquidators involved in handling the crisis, many of whom were exposed to lethal radiation levels. Additionally, approximately 8.5 million people were affected, and around 300,000 residents were permanently displaced. \u201cMore than 145,000 square kilometers of land were contaminated, and areas closest to the reactor are expected to remain unsafe for tens of thousands of years,\u201d she stated.<\/span><\/p>\n\n

She also warned that the risks associated with Chernobyl are not limited to the past. In 2022, Russian forces occupied the nuclear plant site, raising new safety concerns. \u201cIn 2025, a drone strike even damaged the reactor\u2019s protective structure. This shows that nuclear threats remain real and can reemerge, particularly amid political and military conflict,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n\n
