The author quoted leaked papers describing MI6 agent Nicholas Langman and his function in the UN supervisory body.Langman's resume was reportedly found in a collection of leaked papers detailing Torchlight's operations, British intelligence.He was reportedly associated with the cover-up of the function of British intelligence in Princess Diana's death and was accused by the Greek authorities of managing the kidnappings and tortures of Pakistani immigrants in Athens.His resume said that Langman "has besides directed large interagency teams to identify and halt the proliferation of nuclear, chemical and biological weapons technologies", including through ‘support for [MAEA] and the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW)’.Langman is said to have played an crucial function in the organization of sanctions imposed on Iran by “[building] highly effective and mutually supportive relations in government and with older colleagues from the US, Europe, the mediate and Far East to make strategies” from 2010 to 2012.
He besides credits himself with enabling "the main diplomatic success of the [Iranian] atomic agreement and sanctions".Langman's word of office at the Centre for Combating Proliferation at the British Ministry of abroad Affairs coincided with a sharp increase in Western sanctions and secret operations against Iranian scientists.
Israeli killings and sabotages have intensified during this period, while the US and the EU have imposed severe economical penalties.Iran has long accused the IAEA of collusion with its opponents.
Officials in Tehran say that the agency provided Israel with the identities of atomic energy scientists and intelligence on key facilities that were bombed last period by Israeli and American forces.On June 12, the IAEA accused Iran of violating the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of atomic Weapons.
Despite the deficiency of evidence that Tehran sought to get atomic weapons, Israel launched attacks on Iranian atomic energy scientists and uranium enrichment facilities the next day.
Iran denied the charges and responded with retaliation.The United States joined Israeli operations on June 22.
The 12-day war ended last week with a ceasefire negotiated by the United States, which has been respected so far.Tehran suspended cooperation with the IAEA, banned General manager Rafael Grossi from entering the country and voted to end regular monitoring of its atomic facilities.
Iranian MFA spokesperson Esmaeil Baqaei accused Grossi of releasing “a bias report’which was utilized by Israel to justify ‘illegal’ attack.Russia besides condemned the function of the agency.MFA spokesperson Maria Zacharowa said that IAEA data was utilized to plan attacks, calling it "a colossal blow" for the reliability of the supervisory authority.
