Vorstellung der wesentlichen Themenbereiche in Haikals Darstellung des Suez-Kriegs im Kontext eines Kolloquiums, das sich um eine historisch gerechte Würdigung Nassers bemüht. (DÜI-Wit)

ElBaradei discusses the role of International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspections, the various obstacles encountered, & how to surmount them. The issue of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq is addressed; ElBaradei was not surprised that they found no evidence of reconstituted programs, but maintains that Iraq initially did not behave as a nation with nothing to hide, lacking transparency & cooperation, until Jan/Feb 2003. He also comments on IAEA's limited access in Iraq following the fall of the regime. Attention turns to Iran; the obligations placed on it by the IAEA; & reports of technology supplied to Iran by Russia, the People's Republic of China, & Pakistan. ElBaradei then speaks on North Korea's behavior since 1993, the multilateral approach to negotiations, & what might be done to prevent such a crisis from recurring. In addition, he addresses efforts to stem proliferation, including the Proliferation Security Initiative; whether the behavior of North Korea, Iran, & Iraq is linked to Bush's "axis of evil" speech; & his call to restrict production of new nuclear materials for reprocessing & enrichment to multinationally controlled facilities.
