Pakistan has been elected as a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s (IAEA) Board of Governors (BoG) for the 21st time.
The Foreign Office said in a statement on Friday that the country was elected by consensus at the 68th Session of the IAEA’s General Conference in Vienna, from the Middle East and South Asia region, for the two-year term beginning this month.
The development is a recognition of its long-standing commitment to the aims and objectives of the IAEA in promoting peaceful uses of nuclear energy as well as its positive contribution to the formulation of the IAEA’s policies and programmes, the FO added.
