Honoured to be included in @TIME’s list of this year’s 100 most influential people in the world. This recognition reflects the work we do every day at the @IAEAorg on nuclear safety and security, non-proliferation, and the peaceful uses of nuclear science and technology to improve lives around the world. We will keep building on this important work and on helping ensure that multilateralism remains fit for purpose in addressing global challenges. time.com/collection/100…

Timely exchange with @MOFAKuwait’s Sheikh Jarrah Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah on the nuclear safety situation in the Gulf, including recent strikes in the area of Iran’s Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant. I thanked him for his update on the attacks in Kuwait and expressed @IAEAorg’s readiness to continue providing technical assistance and advice on emergency preparedness and response, in the context of the ongoing military conflict and the potential radiological impact of a nuclear emergency on Gulf countries.

The IAEA has been informed by Iran that the Shahid Rezayee Nejad Yellow Cake Production Facility in Yazd province (also known as Ardakan) was attacked today. No increase in off-site radiation levels reported. The IAEA is looking into the report. IAEA Director General @RafaelMGrossi reiterates call for military restraint to avoid any risk of a nuclear accident.

La inteligencia artificial ya no es el futuro: es una oportunidad concreta para transformar la economía de Paraguay 🇵🇾 El desafío es claro: formar talento nacional y trabajar con aliados estratégicos para posicionarnos en esta nueva industria 🌐 #GobiernodelParaguay #IA

El acuerdo UE-Mercosur se aplicará provisionalmente a partir del 1 de mayo de 2026. Esta entrada en vigor provisional permitirá empezar a aplicar buena parte de las medidas comerciales, especialmente la rebaja o eliminación de aranceles. Más info: link.europa.eu/JT8RXt

Reafirmamos el liderazgo de Paraguay en la conservación de la biodiversidad y las especies migratorias. En la COP15 impulsamos la conectividad de ecosistemas vitales como el Gran Chaco, el Pantanal y el Bosque Atlántico. Esta visión de cooperación regional la reforzaremos en Brasil, a través de nuestra agenda estratégica con la FIEMS y el encuentro con el presidente Lula.

After recent concerning reports about military activity near the operating Bushehr Nuclear Power Plant in Iran, IAEA Director General @RafaelMGrossi today had a phone conversation and received an update from Rosatom DG Likhachev. In accordance with the seven indispensable pillars on nuclear safety and security, DG Grossi recalled that no military action should put at risk the physical integrity and safety of NPPs and their operating staff, who must be able to carry out their vital work in safe conditions.

Ravi de prendre la parole lors d’un événement à @UN_Vienna célébrant la #Francophonie, la richesse de la langue française et l’importance de son patrimoine culturel. À l’@IAEAorg, nous constatons comment la science et la technologie peuvent soutenir ces efforts, notamment grâce à des outils qui aident à analyser et à préserver les artefacts culturels pour les générations futures.

Me reuní con el presidente de Brasil, @LulaOficial, con quien conversé sobre el tratado de Itaipú y la visión política que impulsaremos al respecto para el crecimiento y desarrollo de nuestros países. En ese sentido, junto a nuestras delegaciones analizamos los detalles sobre el precio de la energía y su afectación en el desarrollo de nuestras naciones a corto y largo plazo. También evaluamos la realidad geopolítica mundial y regional, y valoramos al Mercosur como una institución integradora a nivel regional y mundial. Destacamos la importancia de fortalecer los lazos entre nuestros países y, desde ahí, generar vínculos con otras regiones del mundo. Hablamos especialmente sobre la situación en Venezuela y el interés de colaborar en la reconstrucción de la democracia en ese país. Durante el encuentro, el presidente Lula me manifestó su deseo de realizar una visita oficial a Paraguay, e igualmente me extendió una invitación para realizar una visita de Estado a Brasil.

Opened the @IAEAorg International Conference on the #SafeSecureTransport of Nuclear and Radioactive Material taking place this week in Vienna. For more than six decades, the global transport system has ensured the safe and secure movement of these materials worldwide. But changing conditions, from evolving security threats to new technologies and growing demand, mean we cannot rest on our laurels. Around 15 million packages are transported each year, about 95% of them unrelated to nuclear power, supporting medicine, agriculture, research or industry. As nuclear energy and radiopharmaceutical use grow, transport will only increase. Denials and delays are a systemic problem that requires a systemic solution. Strong international cooperation and the essential role of the private sector will be key. The IAEA will continue supporting countries in getting life-saving material where it needs to be, safely and on time. Thanks to the conference co-presidents @NucRegSA’s Ditebogo Kgomo and @MHESIThailand’s Pennapa Kanchana for their leadership.

Delighted to speak at an event at @UN_Vienna celebrating #Francophonie, the richness of the French language and the importance of its cultural heritage. At the @IAEAorg, we see how science and technology can support these efforts, including through tools that help analyse and preserve cultural artefacts for future generations.

The first woman to be awarded a Nobel Prize, the first individual to be awarded two Nobel Prizes and still today the only individual with two Nobel Prizes in two different scientific categories: Marie Skłodowska Curie. Skłodowska Curie developed the term radioactivity, discovered the chemical elements polonium and radium and contributed to develop new cancer treatments. For her scientific dedication and remarkable breakthroughs, she was awarded the 1903 physics prize and the 1911 chemistry prize. Learn more: bit.ly/4qGyRS1 #InternationalWomensDay

Opening more opportunities for women in nuclear requires practical action. @IAEAorg’s Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellowship and the Lise Meitner Programmes are doing just that, helping women around the world gain the skills, experience and leadership opportunities to build careers in nuclear science and technology. This progress is also reflected within the Agency itself. In 2019, women represented under 30% of the workforce. Today, they are over 50%. #NuclearNeedsWomen and the momentum must carry forward.
