\t<\/span>The European Union reaffirms its commitment to the resolution on the Middle East adopted by the 1995 Review and Extension Conference and to its full implementation. We continue to support efforts to establish a zone in the Middle East, under truly verifiable conditions, totally free of weapons of mass destruction and their delivery systems. We ask the single State of the region that has not yet adhered to the NPT to ratify and sign it. The European Union feels that accession by all States of the region to the Conventions banning chemical and biological weapons would be an essential and significant contribution to regional and global peace and security. Moreover, we ask all States of the region to conclude an agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on full-scope guarantees.<\/p><\/div>\n
