IAEA holds a forum looking at lessons learned from nuclear-weapon-free zones for establishing such a zone in the Middle East

The IAEA organized a two-day forum to learn from the “Experience of Possible Relevance to the Creation of a Nuclear-Weapon-Free-Zone (nuclear-weapon-free zone) in the Middle East”. The forum looked, inter alia, at the regional contexts before a nuclear-weapon-free zone was established, and the theory and practice of establishing a nuclear-weapon-free zone.
