Original Note:
The disaster was the result of an inherently risky reactor design RBMK only used in the USSR. The large exclusion zone is due to RBMK lacking a containment structure that prevents radioactive leakage in case of accident, a feature of any large reactor Australia would consider. https://www.iaea.org/newscenter/focus/chernobyl/faqs
