  Iran’s ambassador to the UN says the Israeli regime is the only obstacle to the establishment of a Middle East region free from nuclear weapons.
  –
  “Israel’s …nuclear weapons and secret nuclear activities as well as its non-compliance with international treaties on weapons of mass destruction are the main hurdles to the establishment of a region free of nuclear arms in the Middle East,” Gholam Hossein Dehqani said in an address to the final session of the UN Disarmament Commission’s annual meeting on Friday.
  –
  He added that Israel’s “non-constructive” policies prevent international organizations from adopting measures to support the issue.
  –
  “These Israeli moves are unfortunately carried out under the support of Western nuclear countries while all these states shoulder an important responsibility to implement the resolution on a Middle East free of nuclear weapons,” the Iranian envoy pointed out.
  –
  He urged Israel to abandon such policies, join the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and subject all its nuclear facilities to the supervision of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
  –
  Israel is widely believed to be the only possessor of nuclear weapons in the Middle East, with estimated 200-400 nuclear warheads.
  –
  Dehqani further criticized nuclear countries for failing to remain committed to their disarmament obligations.
  –
  The UN General Assembly on December 5, 2013 unanimously adopted a nuclear disarmament resolution that includes proposals forwarded by Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani as head of the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM).
  –
  The resolution calls on nuclear-power states to make more efforts to scale down and ultimately eliminate all types of nuclear arms.
