70th Anniversary of Atoms for Peace Speech

This year marks the 70th anniversary of US President Dwight D Eisenhower’s ‘Atoms for Peace’ speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York. The speech inspired the creation of the IAEA, an organization founded in 1957 to promote the application of nuclear science and technology for peace and development around the world.
