UNITED NATIONS, Oct 18: The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said in a report on Friday that it has not found any evidence of an Iraqi nuclear programme.

The agency charged with uncovering evidence of an Iraqi nuclear weapons programme has found no such evidence.

The report from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), dated October 10 but released on Friday after UN Secretary General Kofi Annan officially delivered it to the Security Council, said that despite the war and occupation, the agency has been able, “with the support of Member States, to continue with some of its investigations outside of Iraq,” and follow up previous inspections with subsequent analysis. International Atomic Energy Agency investigators also conducted inspections inside Iraq for a week in June.
