Is there any country that uses reactors still capable of a chernobyl style nuclear disaster?

We know that safety standarts have vastly increased since Chernoby. However, these improvements tend to not be equal everywhere. This has led me into thinking. Is there any country that due to techonological limitations, corruption, resource resctrictions or any other reason that has a nuclear reactor design fundamentally flaud enough where there is a non-trivial risk of having an accident similar to Chernobyl? If so which one would it be? One that comes to mind might be North Korea.

Edit: By similar to Chernobyl I meant releasing similar quantities of radiation to the Open. It doesnt have to be through that same specific flaw.

I just realized something about Ursa's mother

We know that Ursa is the granddaughter of Avatar Roku. Roku was born in 82 BC, left for his Avatar training in 66 BC and latter came back to marry Ta Min. Even if we assume Ta Min and Roku had their daughter close to Roku's death in 12 BC when both were 70, this would mean that Ursa's mother had her when she was, at the very least, 76 in 64 AG. And if Roku had his daughter when he was slightly younger, this would still mean that Ursa's mother had her daughter in her 80's maybe even 90's, and was at least 100 when she saw Ursa get marry to Ozai.

We have two consecutive generations of women having kids above their 70's, all because the writers could not bother creating more characters to fit between them.
