An Iranian proposal prohibiting military attacks against nuclear installations worldwide has been approved by the UN nuclear watchdog’s general conference, an Iranian official says.
“Iran’s proposal … has been approved in the meeting,” said Ali Asghar Soltaniyeh, Iran’s envoy to the International Atomic Energy Agency, on the sidelines of the week-long General Conference in Vienna.
Considered the highest policymaking body of the IAEA, the General Conference meets annually to consider issues such as non-proliferation, nuclear safety, nuclear safeguards and nuclear security.
