Vienna (IP) - Iran's ambassador and permanent representative to the International Atomic Energy Agency emphasized that IAEA's neglecting of the Israeli regime's nuclear arsenal is the bitter jock of history.

Iran Press/Europe: Kazem Gharibabadi noted that it is a bitter irony that the IAEA, its secretariat, the Board of Governors, and the General Conference are all focused solely on NPT members while ignoring the Israeli regime's nuclear material and activities in the volatile Middle East region is a strategic chronic mistake.

Gharbabadi said on Friday, besides developing a covert nuclear weapon plan, the Israeli regime is also not a party to any of the important treaties governing disarmament and non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction including NPT while enjoying all the benefits of the IAEA's charter related to the NPT.

Such a situation, he stressed, has given the regime the audacity to ridicule the IAEA's authority and mission to prevent deviation of its nuclear material and activities.
