"We are making progress towards the establishment of a nuclear safety and protection zone around the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant," Grossi wrote.
During the meeting, Kuleba said that Russia must withdraw from the ZNPP in order to guarantee its nuclear safety and immediately stop kidnapping and intimidating Ukrainian staff.
ZNPP, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe, has been held by the Russian military since March 4.
Grossi met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on October 12.
