IAEA approves UAE's ratification of additional protocol

VIENNA, March 4, 2009 (WAM) - The International Atomic Energy Agency(IAEA) Board of Governors at a session on Tuesday approved the UAE's ratification of the additional nuclear inspection measures known as the Additional Protocol.
The Additional Protocol was developed by the nuclear watchdog to verify nuclear activities by IAEA's member states to ensure their commitment to the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
Representatives of member countries of the Arabian Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) unanimously hailed the UAE's initiative as a highly significant step that demonstrates GCC members' commitment to the peaceful use of nuclear energy and technology.
