UAE stresses peaceful N-use
The UAE has reaffirmed its commitment to develop its national nuclear
programme to the highest standards of safety, security, non-proliferation
and transparency.
Addressing the 62nd session of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
General Conference here, Ambassador Hamad Alkaabi, UAE Permanent
Representative to the IAEA, commended the international agency’s central
role in supporting its Member States in their pursuit, development and
sustainment of peaceful uses of nuclear energy and applications.
“The IAEA has a central role in supporting its Member States in their
pursuit, development and sustainment of peaceful uses of nuclear energy and
applications. My delegation commends the Agency’s strong direction in
providing technical support and providing a platform for international
cooperation, as well as its relentless efforts in ensuring
non-proliferation,” he said.
CLEAN SOURCE
The ambassador noted that the UAE is of the view that nuclear power as a
clean source of energy is an important factor to meet growing energy demand
and to achieve sustainable development goals. Last October, the UAE hosted
the 4th International Ministerial Conference on Nuclear Power in the 21st
Century, in Abu Dhabi. The conference was successful in highlighting
challenges and prospects of nuclear power, and its essential role in
mitigating climate change.
Alkaabi noted that the UAE is currently in the commissioning phase of its
nuclear power programme, with construction of the first unit at Barakah NPP
now completed.
“Unit 2 is following closely at 93% completion; Unit 3 at 84% and Unit 4 at
more than 75%. Barakah NPP construction and commissioning process is
conducted in accordance with IAEA’s guidance and international best
practices, ensuring that Barakah NPP reflects the highest standards of
operational safety, security, transparency and non-proliferation.
VITAL CHANNEL
“In line with the UAE policy and commitments to develop the national nuclear
programme to the highest standards of safety, security, non-proliferation
and transparency, my country hosted 10 major IAEA peer review missions to
date, most recently pre-OSART and INIR phase 3 missions. UAE encourages
member states with existing or future plans for nuclear power to benefit
from IAEA peer review missions.”
The IAEA’s Technical Cooperation Programme is an important channel for
assistance to Member States, the ambassador added.
“UAE has received significant support through the TC Programme which
supported the nuclear infrastructure development and capacity building
required for nuclear power and applications including in sectors such as
health, agriculture, and the environment. The IAEA has trained more than
5,000 participants in various fields in the UAE in the past 10 years. It is
important that the TC programme receives the required support and funding to
facilitate assistance to member states, which is at the core of the IAEA
mandate.
HIGHEST STANDARDS
“The UAE places utmost importance on maintaining the highest standards of
nuclear safety. My country has subscribed to all international conventions
in this area, and participates actively in the review process of both the
Convention on Nuclear Safety, as well as the Joint Convention on the Safety
of Spent Fuel Management and on the Safety of Radioactive Waste Management.
The UAE most recently submitted its Third National Report to the Sixth
Review Meeting of the Contracting Parties to the Joint Convention. My
delegation notes here that Iran is the only country with significant nuclear
activities that has yet to join the Convention on Nuclear Safety. We
encourage Iran to join this important international instrument at an early
date.”
The ambassador underlined the UAE’s support for IAEA efforts in the area of
nuclear security. “My country supports the work of the IAEA through national
actions and international cooperation. We look forward to the forthcoming
International Conference on Nuclear Security. UAE supports the CPPNM and
encourages member states to join and ratify this important instrument.
“Regarding IAEA verification measures, we are of the view that the
Additional Protocol to the Comprehensive Safeguards Agreement is an
important instrument to complement the IAEA safeguards system. We welcome
the progress reflected in the increased number of signed and ratified
additional protocols. We encourage the Agency to continue its open dialogue
with member states on strengthening the efficiency and effectiveness of the
safeguards system.”
IRAN
On the agreement with Iran the ambassador said, “In relationship to the
JCPOA concluded with Iran, my country, like many, has hoped that such
Agreement would address long held nuclear concerns and moderate Iran’s
regional behaviour. Unfortunately, this was not the case. We call on Iran to
build further confidence in the peaceful nature of its nuclear activities
and to refrain from the actions that continue to threaten the peace and
stability of the region.”
On the issue of the establishment of a Middle East nuclear weapons and other
WMD free zones, Alkaabi said the UAE “hopes that the current NPT Review
Cycle will achieve significant steps towards implementing the agreed Action
Plan of 2010, and the convening of the Conference on the Middle East Nuclear
Weapon and WMD Free Zone with the participation of all countries in the
region without delay.”
He reiterated that the UAE is keen to continue collaboration with the IAEA
and its Member States in promoting the responsible peaceful use of nuclear
energy and applications, as well as the IAEA’s goals of ensuring and
strengthening nuclear safety, security and safeguards.
“My delegation is grateful to Director-General Yukiya Amano and the
Secretariat for the outstanding support and continuous cooperation with my
country,” the ambassador concluded.
