UNITED NATIONS (AP) — China, Iran and a multitude of Arab nations condemned an Israeli minister’s statement that a nuclear bomb on the Gaza Strip was an option in the Israel-Hamas war, calling it a threat to the world. It is widely believed to possess nuclear weapons, and a former employee at its nuclear reactor served 18 years in Israeli prison for leaking details and pictures of Israel’s alleged nuclear arsenal program to a British newspaper in 1986. He urged Israel to stop “such rhetoric or posturing” and join the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty as a non-nuclear weapon state. Ambassador Amir Iravani told the conference the nuclear threats directed toward Palestinians by high-ranking Israeli officials highlight Israel’s “pride” in having these weapons in its hands. “The secrecy surrounding Israel’s nuclear capabilities poses a significant threat to regional stability,” he said.

The announcement by Mikhail Ulyanov added new fuel to tensions between Russia and the United States over Moscow's invasion of Ukraine and arms control disputes between the world's largest nuclear weapons powers. Ulyanov, Moscow's envoy to the CTBTO, said on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter, that "#Russia plans to revoke ratification (which took place in the year 2000) of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty." "The aim is to be on equal footing with the #US who signed the Treaty, but didn't ratify it. While the United States signed but did not ratify the treaty, it has observed a moratorium on nuclear weapon test explosions since 1992 that it says it has no plans to abandon. The spokesperson said Russia should reach an "equal footing" with the United States "by not wielding arms control and irresponsible nuclear rhetoric in a failing attempt to coerce other states."

Summary This content was produced in Russia, where the law restricts coverage of Russian military operations in Ukraine. MOSCOW, Dec 17 (Reuters) - A shield is being set up over a storage site for spent nuclear waste at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant in southern Ukraine to protect it from shelling and drones, a Russian-installed official said on Saturday. Fighting over Europe's largest nuclear power station in 10 months of conflict has raised fears of a possible Chornobyl-style nuclear disaster. Both Kyiv and Moscow have accused each other of recklessly shelling the plant, whose six reactors are all off line.

"There is a proposal from the (EU) coordinator on the table and it will remain on the table. They have accused Iran of going backwards in the talks, something Tehran denies. "We hope that they will be honest and do not waste more time in order to pressure Iran." Colonna said the United States and its European partners shared an identical position on the question of resolving an investigation. A source close to Iran’s nuclear team said Tehran had lost interest in reviving a deal that can only last 2 years.

„Reluarea” acordului, încheiat în 2015 la Viena şi subminat de retragerea SUA din 2018 la iniţiativa fostului preşedinte Donald Trump, „nu va veni imediat. „Pot să spun că, în ansamblu, întâlnirea a fost constructivă”, a declarat Abbas Araghchi, şeful delegaţiei iraniene, conform unei înregistrări video difuzate de canalul public de ştiri Irinn. Statele Unite ale Americii au salutat, de asemenea, „o etapă constructivă şi binevenită”, potrivit declaraţiei purtătorului de cuvânt al diplomaţiei americane, Ned Price. Purtătoarea de cuvânt a Casei Albă a declarat că se aşteaptă „la un proces lung şi dificil uneori”. Nu s-a decis nimic, a avertizat ea, menţionând că trimiterea la Viena a unui oficial de rang înalt demonstrează importanţa pe care Washingtonul o acordă acestor discuţii.
