NOTES
IAEA-EURATOM: A draft agreement on the safe-
guards required by the Nuclear Nonproliferation
Treaty (NPT) was completed in Vienna last week.
The long debate over the proper relationship between
IAEA safeguards and EURATOM's own regional safeguards
system was ended by a compromise limiting the role
of IAEA inspectors. The draft has now been sent to
EURATOM's five nonnuclear-weapons members and is
likely to be formally approved by the Council of
Ministers of the European Community in late Septem-
ber. Ratification of the NPT by the five would
probably follow shortly thereafter. Although France,
the sixth EURATOM member, will not sign the NPT, it
could obstruct council approval of the safeguards
agreement. The EC Commission, however, believes
that France will merely make a number of minor ob-
jections to the agreement, perhaps paving thp WAV
for French abstention from Council action.
