	News from ICTP 92 - Monitor
		Sigvard Eklund, director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) from 1961 to 1981, died in Vienna, Austria, on 30 January 2000.
		Swedish-born Eklund was appointed director general just one year after IAEA received the first formal proposal for the creation of an international centre for theoretical physics.
		Before the official launching of the Centre, Eklund visited Trieste to inspect its temporary offices at Piazza Oberdan in the heart of the city and to help select the land on which a permanent structure would be built (what became the Miramare campus just north of the Scuderie).

		In Vienna, International Atomic Energy Agency Director-General Sigvard Eklund, whose agency was responsible for monitoring the installation, declared that IAEA's inspections made it all but impossible for Iraqi technicians to carry out secret activities.
		Eklund asserted that any such effort "would be detected with very high probability" by IAEA inspectors or French technicians on the site.
		Eklund's view that IAEA inspectors could discover nuclear chicanery was disputed in testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee by Roger Richter, an American married to an Israeli, who resigned last week as an inspector for the international agency.

		But Bush administration officials have said that they believe that the occupants of such positions should be limited to two terms.
		They have made that contention although ElBaradei’s two most immediate predecessors—Swedish diplomats Sigvard Eklund (1961-1981) and Hans Blix (1981-1997)—both served at least four four-year terms.
		More to the point, perhaps, ElBaradei angered some members of the administration when he disclosed that Iraqi officials had told him of the disappearance of 340 metric tons of dual-use conventional explosives subject to agency monitoring.

	L.S. Spector: Nuclear Proliferation Today - Pakistan, Iraq
		In October, IAEA director general Sigvard Eklund advised the Agency's Board of Governors that because Pakistan had acquired the capability to fabricate its own nuclear fuel, the Agency could no longer certify by means of the monitoring arrangements then in place at the facility that diversions at the KANUPP reactor had not occurred.
		Eklund called on the Pakistani government to permit a substantial upgrading of the IAEA's existing safeguards (74) The IAEA finding was the first such determination in the the Agency's history.
		Until the new fuel fabrication plant had begun operation in September 1980, the Agency had possessed complete knowledge of the amount of nuclear fuel available to be used in the KANUPP reactor, since it had all been imported from Canada and inventoried carefully.
