VIENNA — A U.N. nuclear conference indirectly criticized Israel on Saturday for refusing to put its atomic program under international purview, but the Jewish state evaded a Muslim-led attempt to link it to nuclear proliferation in the Mideast.
As in past years at the International Atomic Energy Agency’s general conference, Iran, Israel’s most outspoken foe, spearheaded the verbal attack on Israel, which is widely considered to have nuclear arms but has a “no tell” policy on the issue.
Chief Iranian delegate Ali Ashgar Soltanieh said Israel’s nuclear capabilities represent a “serious and continued threat to the security of neighboring and other states.”
