Kuwait lauds IAEA ‘effort’
VIENNA, Sept 16, (KUNA): Kuwait on Tuesday voiced appreciation for the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) efforts concerning the implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA).
Specifically pointing to the Agency’s keenness for UN Security Council Resolution 2231 to be implemented by concerned parties, Kuwaiti Ambassador to Austria and Permanent Representative to International Organizations in Vienna Sadeq Marafi, told an IAEA session earlier Wednesday that the State of Kuwait is “concerned” over Iran’s “continuous” breaching of items included in the JCPOA of 2015.
Highlighting the “pivotal” role of the Agency in this regard, Ambassador Marafi said that his country is following on developments of this file, at the same time that Kuwait is not denying any country the right to pursue acquiring nuclear energy for peaceful purposes and within the NPT.
Marafi called on Iran to fully abide by the Plan of Action, as well as urging the Islamic Republic to endorse the plan’s supplementary protocol in order to enable the Agency to provide credibility for Iran’s nuclear dossier.
