"The IAEA and countries which claim to defend non-proliferation of nuclear weapons have neither issued any resolution to stop Israel's nuclear activities nor have they taken any measures to (urge) the regime to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT)," he added.
The lawmaker further noted that nuclear warheads and pointed out that Israel has lobbied Western countries and the US to convince them to pursue double-standard policies on the regime's nuclear program.
