Egypt warns against dealing with NPT in double standard
Egypt-Regional, Politics, 9/26/2005

Egypt's ambassador to Austria and its delegate to UN Vienna seat said maintaining the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) is a joint responsibility.

Addressing meetings of the board of governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), the Egyptian diplomat warned against double standards and selective attitudes in applying NPT rules.

He expressed concern and frustration over failure of IAEA and the international community to make any tangible progress towards applying IAEA guarantees in the Middle East after the Israeli refusal to sign the treaty.
