Just briefed the @UN Security Council in New York today on current nuclear non-proliferation issues, with a focus on Iran.

Gradual, technical steps could allow @IAEAorg inspectors to return and pave the way to normal safeguards implementation while contributing to a confidence-building atmosphere conducive to a wider agreement.

Only diplomacy, underpinned by IAEA verification, can prevent nuclear proliferation in the long-term, in Iran and around the world.

As the global interest in nuclear energy continues to grow, the IAEA Nuclear Power Ministerial “In Focus” sessions will explore some of the trends, opportunities and innovation shaping the nuclear sector today.

The In Focus sessions will spotlight:

🔵Empowering the future workforce: exploring how young professionals and future leaders can help shape the future of nuclear energy

🔵Nuclear energy’s new era: examining the role of digital innovation and advanced nuclear technologies in enhancing the safety, efficiency and versatility of nuclear energy

🔵Stakeholder and public confidence: exploring the importance of building and maintaining public confidence throughout the development and operation of nuclear power programmes

🔵Financing for the future: exploring new approaches to financing nuclear power expansion in both developed and developing countries

🔵AI in action: examining the growing relationship between nuclear energy and the digital economy

Alongside national statements and expert panel discussions, the In Focus sessions will create space for in-depth exchanges on the issues that will help shape the next chapter of nuclear energy.

A recent IAEA Small Modular Reactor (SMR) School held in Russia gave policy makers and regulators from around the world an opportunity to learn directly from organizations involved in the design, regulation and operation of SMRs and nuclear-powered vessels.

Held in Murmansk from 24 to 28 August and hosted by the Russian Government through the Rosatom Technical Academy, the School brought together 22 participants from 13 IAEA Member States. The programme combined classroom discussions, technical visits and a virtual tour of the Akademik Lomonosov floating nuclear power plant.

Under the protection of the latest localized ceasefire negotiated by IAEA DG @rafaelmgrossi, repairs have been completed on power infrastructure that is of crucial importance for efforts to prevent a nuclear accident during the conflict in Ukraine.

The eighth such IAEA-brokered temporary truce took effect on 15 October, paving the way for the past week’s repairs of damaged electrical switchyard equipment , around 2 km from the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP) and a key link in its access to off-site power.

The work - conducted near the frontline and monitored by an IAEA team - was at times accompanied by the sound of drones, gunfire and other military activity, stark reminders of constant dangers to nuclear safety and security.

The successful repairs have strengthened the connection between the ZNPP and its sole remaining external power line, the Ferosplavna-1, and reduced the risk of yet another loss of off-site power for Europe’s largest nuclear power plant.

The ZNPP’s connection to the electrical grid is especially important at this time as the site’s fuel reserves for emergency diesel generators have declined in recent months, potentially weakening its ability to cope with another lengthy loss of the external electricity needed for reactor cooling and other essential nuclear safety and security functions.

DG Grossi thanks the Russian Federation and Ukraine for agreeing to the ceasefire and paving the way for the repairs, demonstrating a readiness by both sides to engage constructively with the IAEA for the sake of nuclear safety and security.

The IAEA will continue its vital work to help protect the ZNPP and other nuclear installations during the conflict, DG Grossi adds.

@rafaelmgrossi présente le rapport annuel 2025 de l’@IAEAorg à l’Assemblée générale de l'ONU à New York.

Alors que les conflits et divisions mettent à l’épreuve la coopération internationale, l’AIEA poursuit son travail indispensable en faveur de la paix et du développement.

[Rafael Mariano Grossi @rafaelmgrossi]

Presented @IAEAorg’s 2025 Annual Report to the @UN General Assembly #UNGA in New York.

At a time when conflict and growing divisions are testing international cooperation, the IAEA continues its indispensable work for peace and development.

Some highlights of our work include:

- Non-proliferation: conducting nearly 3,000 in-field verification activities, including work that led to the resolution of outstanding questions concerning Syria’s past nuclear activities.

- Nuclear safety and security in Ukraine: we have maintained an uninterrupted presence at all nuclear facilities, conducted 287 missions, and I have negotiated 8 ceasefires between the two belligerents to enable critical repairs at ZNPP.

- Health: our #RaysOfHope, now joined by more than 100 countries, is expanding access to life-saving cancer care one community at a time, and we are strengthening pandemic preparedness in 129 countries through ZODIAC.

- Food security: we are tackling hunger and boosting food security through #Atoms4Food with @FAO, in a partnership that spans 46 countries.

- Plastic pollution: 180 institutions from 110 countries are working together to beat plastic pollution and improve monitoring through #NUTECplastics.

The world is fractured, but progress continues in the patient work of peace, security and development. IAEA’s unique contribution to dialogue, transparency and multilateral cooperation remains indispensable.

Thank you, @UN_PGA Khalilur Rahman, for the opportunity to present our work.

Nitrogen pollution is an increasing threat to rivers, lakes and groundwater worldwide. Excess nitrate from wastewater discharges, agricultural activities and other human sources can degrade water quality, fuel harmful algal blooms and damage freshwater and coastal ecosystems. Yet identifying the origin of nitrate contamination is often difficult because nitrogen undergoes complex biological and chemical transformations as it moves through the environment.

Nobel laureate Ilya Mikhaylovich Frank was born today in 1908! This Russian physicist is famous for explaining Cherenkov radiation — the blue glow you see in a reactor.

Frank, together with his colleague Igor Tamm, concluded in 1937 that Cherenkov radiation was the result of charged particles interacting with electrons because particles travel faster than light in an insulating medium such as water. This interaction produced the bluish light first discovered by and named after their compatriot Pavel Cherenkov three years earlier. This explanation earned Frank and Tamm the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1958.

An IAEA team of experts found that Kenya is committed to continuous improvement of the safe management of radioactive waste as it prepares to introduce nuclear power to its energy mix.

The experts noted the considerable progress made in recent years and gave recommendations for the country to further develop, finalize and implement its national plan for waste management.

Today is the birthday of Clinton Joseph Davisson, the Nobel Prize-winning American physicist who discovered electron diffraction. In an experiment conducted with physicist Lester Germer, Davisson showed that, when directed at a crystal, an electron beam will produce a diffraction pattern with wave-like attributes. The Davisson-Germer experiment confirmed a similar hypothesis proposed in 1924 by Louis de Broglie, with Davisson and Lester becoming the first to demonstrate the wave properties of the electron.

Their Nobel Prize-winning work proved the principle of wave-particle duality, which states that every elementary particle or quantic entity exhibits properties, not only of particles, but also waves.
