US must let IAEA do its job in Iran
Oped, Helen Clark, Published on 31/03/2026
» The US-Israeli war on Iran has already destabilised the global economy and the geopolitics of the Middle East. Even more alarming, recent reporting shows that US President Donald Trump is deploying ground troops, a prospect that immediately evokes memories of past failed interventions -- from Vietnam to Iraq -- with their high costs in American and especially local lives.

» We don't know when the next epidemic or pandemic will hit, or where the next infectious threat will emerge. But we do know that the nature of the threat is constantly evolving. One of the most sobering takeaways from this year's Munich Security Conference was that AI-enabled gene editing has radically lowered the barrier to developing genetically engineered bioweapons.
