Expert: Syria may have violated non-proliferation treaty
None
"Syria is party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and as such, is barred from receiving any aid that may be used in the manufacturing of nuclear weapons," said Dr. Robbie Sabel, an expert on international law from the Hebrew University, to Ynet this weekend.
If Syria did indeed receive such aid, said Dr. Sabel, "then it is in blatant violation of the treaty. If that is what has transpired, then Syria may be sanctioned to prevent any further development of weapons, as was done with Iraq and as may be done with Iran." (Ynet)
