REPORT RELEASED ON LIBYA'S NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROGRAM
The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) last week described
what it has learned about the conduct of Libya's aborted nuclear weapons
program, as well as what remains obscure about Libya's activities,
in a confidential report prepared by the IAEA Director General.
IAEA
inspectors have been reconstructing Libya's nuclear program, including
its commerce with a "clandestine network" that supplied centrifuges
for uranium enrichment, nuclear materials and weapons design information.
A copy of the May 28, 2004 IAEA report on "Implementation of the NPT
Safeguards Agreement of the Socialist People's Libyan Arab Jamahiriya,"
marked "for official use only," is available here.
