Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi has condemned Western powers for their "deaf silence" over the Israeli regime's expanding nuclear weapons program, saying that the United States and Europe have lost all credibility in their statements on the non-proliferation of nuclear weapons.

Iran has long warned that Western hysteria about the proliferation of nuclear weapons in our region is complete nonsense. In their opinion, the problem is not the existence or expansion of nuclear weapons arsenals. The question is who will get the opportunity to develop scientific research, even within the framework of peaceful nuclear programs.

"Therefore, it is not surprising that the West remains deathly silent about the apparent expansion of the only nuclear arsenal in our region — nuclear weapons in the hands of its genocidal ally. The EU and the United States may deny this, but their silence undermines any confidence that it is possible to talk about non—proliferation," the Iranian Foreign minister said.

His remarks came amid new revelations pointing to increased construction at the Dimona nuclear facility, which has long been suspected of hosting the undeclared nuclear arsenal of the Israeli regime.
