During a session of the UN atomic agency on Saturday, Qatar’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to the United Nations Office in Vienna, Jassim Yacoub al-Hammadi, called on the Israeli entity to sign the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT).

“Hammadi underscored the need for the international community and its institutions to uphold their commitments under resolutions of the UN Security Council, the UN General Assembly, the IAEA, and the 1995 Review Conference of the NPT, which called on Israel to subject all its nuclear facilities to IAEA safeguards,” the Qatari statement read.

He also called for “intensified international efforts” to pressure "Israel" into joining the NPT “as a non-nuclear entity,” the Foreign Ministry said.

Al-Hammadi pointed out that "all Middle Eastern countries, except Israel, are parties to the NPT and have effective safeguard agreements with the Agency", as per the statement.

"Israel" is believed to possess more than 100 nuclear warheads. However, it has consistently refused to sign the NPT or allow IAEA inspections of its nuclear sites.

Hammadi criticized "Israel" for its ongoing “aggressive policies,” including calls for the forced displacement of Palestinians, military offensives in West Bank cities and refugee camps, restrictions on humanitarian aid to Gaza, and its limitations on the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).

He further noted that Qatar recently submitted a written memorandum to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) regarding a request for an advisory opinion based on a December 19, 2024, UN General Assembly resolution.

“The request seeks clarification on Israel’s obligations concerning the activities of the United Nations, other international organizations, and third-party states,” Hammadi stated.

Qatar’s memorandum reaffirmed that "Israel" must allow UN and international humanitarian organizations, particularly UNRWA, to operate within Israeli-occupied territories.

“The memorandum also called on Israel to respect and protect the property of the UN and other international organizations, including schools, medical facilities, transport infrastructure, and water resources, as well as their personnel.”

Hammadi concluded by urging the international community to take “decisive action” to enforce international resolutions, recognize Palestinians' right to self-determination, and support the establishment of "an independent Palestinian state". He stressed that such steps were essential to restoring regional stability and preventing further global risks.
