Iran Gets Nukes Amid Fears Of All-Out War With Israel? UN Agency’s Bombshell: ‘Just 2 kg Short Of…’

Read Time:1 Minute, 46 Second

The International Atomic Energy Agency has raised alarms over Iran’s nuclear ambitions, revealing a significant increase in highly enriched uranium. The IAEA report stated Iran’s stockpile has grown to 164.7 kg, nearing the threshold for nuclear weapons. It further added Iran remains just 2 kg short of the uranium needed for four potential bombs. Watch for more details.

The Palestinian Authority condemns the United States for vetoing a Palestinian bid for full UN membership, calling it an “aggression” that pushes the Middle East towards an “abyss.”

The US policy “represents a blatant aggression against international law and an encouragement to the pursuit of the genocidal war against our people… which pushes the region ever further to the edge of the abyss.” Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’s office says in a statement.

The statement also calls the US veto “”unfair, unethical and unjustified.”

When external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal was asked about this issue at a regular media briefing, he said, “The subject of Bangladesh, which has been highlighted by certain quarters, was very much discussed substantially by both the leaders.”

Claims that the issue of Bangladesh hadn’t figured in the phone call are “uninformed, tendentious, and motivated and betray a total lack of familiarity with the process of how such contacts between leaders are organised and then followed up on,” he said.

Jaiswal pointed out that press releases issued after such conversations between leaders are unlike joint statements, “where every word is negotiated and mutually agreed upon”. These press releases are “not meant to be comprehensive readouts of such conversations”, he said.

“Finally, it is not unusual for two sides to emphasise different aspects of the same conversation in their respective readouts,” Jaiswal said.

The “absence of an aspect in one press release or the other is not evidence of its absence in the conversation”, he added.

“I am very much aware of the contents of the conversation between the prime minister and the president, and I can tell you that our press release is an accurate and faithful record of what transpired in the conversation,” the MEA spokesperson said.
