Prince Abdullah, who is also the Saudi permanent representative to the IAEA in Vienna, was speaking during a meeting of the agency’s board of governors in the Austrian capital, where Tehran was censured for failing to provide information over nuclear material found at three undeclared sites.
He expressed his thanks to IAEA Director-General Rafael Grossi for his report on the Non-proliferation Treaty Safeguards Agreement with Iran and highlighted the need to inform member states of the developments related to Iran’s violations of the safeguards deal.
