Jerusalem – After 12 days of fighting, President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared the victory against Iran’s nuclear program.
Trump stated that three nuclear sites had been erased, because Netanyahu announced that Israel “had” removed an immediate double existential threat: both in the nuclear domain and in the field of ballistic missiles “performance the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) of the UN of the UN core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core of the core.

“It can warn, and that’s what it did,” she said. “Sometimes these warnings led to resolutions of the United Nations Security Council, and sometimes not, but the IAEA cannot do more than that – it is only as strong as the board members and the countries participating in it.”
Days before Israel launched his military attack on Iran with the aim of removing the nuclear and conventional – weapon threat, the global nuclear watchdog reported that Iran estimated 408.6 kilograms (nearly 901 pounds) of Uranium to 60%to make about nine nuclear bombs.
The report, which also criticized the lack of cooperation of Iran with the IAEA, applied the Board of Directors of the Agency for the first time in 20 years to declare that the Islamic Republic was contrary to its non-proliferation obligations.

“We should not be surprised by this failure, and we must add to this failure, the failure of the United Nations,” Dr. Yoel Guzansky, a senior fellow at the Institute for National Security Studies at the University of Tel Aviv.
Guzansky emphasized the fact that only a week ago, in the midst of launching hundreds of ballistic missiles in Israeli villages and cities, the Iranian Foreign Minister ABBAS Araghchi took the UN human rights council in Geneva.

“Iran was welcomed there and Israel became bashed,” he noticed.
“It only shows that the UN system has long been failed and has long needed to renovate, make it again,” went further, adding guzansky, adding that compared to other UN bodies, “the IAEA is pretty okay.”
“It is not black and white, it has had some performance, but it depends on what your expectations are,” he continued. “I don’t think anyone expected the IAEA Iran to prevent completely.”
Guzansky said that two decades of inspections and such reports had actually allowed Israel and the US to “collect information and an understanding of the nuclear program from Iran” – a fact that has been tested in the last week and a half.

Iran consistently maintained that all its nuclear activities were completely peaceful and that it would never try to develop or acquire nuclear weapons.
“The real problem here is not necessarily the IAEA, it is that Iran has been cheating for 20 years and does not play a straight bat,” says Alan Mendoza, executive director of the Henry Jackson Society.
“Iran is confusing and misleading and secretly developing programs that the IAEA has not been able to have had access,” he said, adding, “So in many respects it is not the IAEA error, it is not in itself not enforcement options – it is just to check.”
Mendoza also said that Iran’s ability to promote his nuclear ambitions and enrich the uranium into weapons level, “really was the fault of the international community, rather than an agency.”
“This could have been set years ago, as we have seen now, whether we actually force Iran in compliance with military or other means,” he said.
“What this ultimately shows is that when you have an international malactor who continues to play the system, the only way to deal with it, blow up the system and say,” Okay, you want to play it that way “, well, here is our reaction.”

The IAEA director says that Iran’s enriched uranium cannot be established after American military strikes
Despite the successful use of US violence and Israel, the IAEA has stopped to praise their actions.
During an emergency session from the board members of the Agency on Monday, Rafael Grossi, the director -general of the IAEA, still insisted on diplomacy and warned that fighting was “the worldwide nuclear non -proliferation regime”.
“There is still a path for diplomacy, we have to take it, otherwise violence and destruction of unimaginable levels can reach, and the global non-proliferation regime that has supported international security for more than half a century could crumble and fall,” he said, without a word over Iran’s lack of transparency and the clear violation of more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than more than two decues.

“Like all international authorities that have condemned us and Israeli action, these organizations only exist for the purpose exclusively of diplomacy,” said Mendoza, adding: “The agency has no military function. It doesn’t have a call for it. It can’t ask for it, so if you think about it, everything they do is only protecting their position in the international system.”
Requests for a response from the IAEA were not answered immediately on Wednesday.
