VIENNA — Two men with differing visions for the International Atomic Energy Agency failed Friday to win enough support to become its new chief, splitting the vote among the agency’s developed and developing countries.
A meeting of the agency’s 35-nation board was adjourned prematurely after neither Yukiya Amano of Japan nor Abdul Samad Minty of South Africa got the required two-thirds majority needed for victory. Board chairwoman Taous Feroukhi of Algeria was expected Monday to invite member nations to submit — or resubmit — candidates within the next four weeks.
