[Ynet News] Roni Sofer - Foreign Ministry Director-General Aharon Abramovich on Monday accused the International Atomic Energy Agency of thwarting international efforts against Iran's nuclear program. "Instead of contributing to the international efforts against Iran, the IAEA is acting as an obstructive element, whose opinions serve as an excuse for countries to refrain from joining the efforts against Tehran," Abramovich said during a discussion of the Iranian issue at the Saban Forum. Foreign Ministry officials explained that IAEA chief Dr. Mohammed El-Baradei, who should be controlling the distribution of nuclear arms in the world, is allowing Iran to go ahead with processes which Israel believes will lead to the development of nuclear weapons.
