Israel Links Ratifying Nuclear Test Ban to Iran Ties
(Reuters) Israel wants Iranian recognition before it ratifies the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT), Merav Zafary-Odiz, Israel's ambassador to the UN nuclear watchdog agency in Vienna, said Wednesday. Israel has signed but not ratified the treaty. "Iran does not recognize Israel....How can any country be expected to join an arms control arrangement with a country that doesn't even recognize its right to exist?" she told Tel Aviv University's Institute for National Security Studies.
