Takiing to X, formerly known as Twitter, she said: “No official from IAEA is currently visiting Pakistan, nor are any policy talks planned in the near future with IAEA.

“Director General IAEA visited Pakistan in February 2023.”

Stories regarding the visit of a high-level IAEA delegation to Pakistan are fake news! No IAEA official is currently visiting Pakistan; Nor are any policy talks planned in near future with IAEA. DG IAEA visited Pakistan in Feb 2023. We had briefed the media on the occasion.
