lets also not forget how chernobyl was "solved". It was capped with extremely thick concrete as a long-term temporary measure.

"Designed to last 30 years, it now suffers from approximately 300 square yards of cracks and holes along with other weaknesses which have arisen due to both the speed of construction and the conditions under which it was built. The design of the sarcophagus did not allow for potential earthquake stresses and both Ukrainian and Western scientists say it could collapse in a severe earthquake releasing radioactive dust."
