🎙 FM Sergey Lavrov’s remarks at the high-level segment of the Conference on Disarmament, March 1, 2022 ➡️
💬We hope that the repeatedly delayed 10th Review Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT), one of the key elements of the international security and strategic stability system, will be held later this year. It is necessary that the conference take place in a constructive, business-like atmosphere and that following it the participating states reaffirm their readiness to strictly abide by their commitments. Russia is open to interaction with all countries in the interests of the forum’s success.
💬We would like to ask some questions about the controversial plan to create AUKUS, a closed partnership involving Australia, the UK, and the US. It is obvious that AUKUS is having a negative influence on the non-proliferation regime, provoking tensions, and creating prerequisites for a new arms race in the APR and elsewhere.

💬There are continuing efforts to restore the full-scale implementation of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) designed to reach settlement on the Iranian nuclear programme. We hope that they will be a success. There is no reasonable alternative to the JCPOA. Backed by the UN Security Council Resolution 2231, the obligations under the Nuclear Deal must be strictly observed by everyone without any reservations. We have to state that the current situation is a clear evidence of the fact that Washington’s intractability comes at a high cost to global security. A policy based on blackmail and pressure has no prospects.

💬What is needed is to support the effort to create a zone free from nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction (WMD- Free Zone) in the Middle East, as envisaged by the resolution of the 1995 Review and Extension Conference of the Parties to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons. A positive development was the convocation of two sessions of the Conference in keeping with the UN General Assembly’s December 2018 decision. Russia was actively involved in these two forums as an observer. We hope for Israel’s accession to this process, as well as for the accession of the United States, the coauthor of the 1995 WMD-Free Zone resolution.

❕The IAEA Board of Governors’ resolution on nuclear security in #Ukraine contains intentional politically motivated lies and mistakes. Russia is requested «to cease all actions against nuclear facilities».
⚡️We asked 3 times to provide concrete facts in this regard. Total silence in response.

❗️The IAEA Board of Governors’ resolution calls upon the Russian Federation to create conditions for the competent Ukrainian authorities to regain full control over nuclear facilities.
❕There is nothing to regain because these authorities exercise control in full. The sponsors of the Resolution are either ignorant or lie intentionally

❕At today’s IAEA Board of Governors’ meeting we noted with satisfaction that countries, whose populations taken together exceed a half of the mankind, refused to support the resolution which abuses extremely important topic of nuclear safety and security for purely political purposes
