A senior Israeli official insists that Tel Aviv will not change its nuclear policies despite international calls for the denuclearization of the Middle East.
一名以色列高級官員堅持，特拉維夫不會改變其核政策，儘管國際呼籲中東無核化。
"There is nothing new here, and no reason for a change of direction on our part," the unnamed Israeli official was quoted by Reuters as saying on Friday.
“日光之下無新事，沒有理由改變我們部份的方向，”不具名的以色列官員的說話週五被路透社引述。
Under an "ambiguity" policy, Tel Aviv neither confirms nor denies having nuclear weapons. However, according to the British Jane's Defense Weekly, security experts believe Tel Aviv is in the possession of 100 to 300 atomic warheads.
在一個“模糊”政策下，特拉維夫既不證實也不否認擁有核武器。不過根據英國簡氏防務周刊，安全專家相信特拉維夫擁有 100至300支核彈頭。
Washington has so far invariably maintained a policy of silence on Tel Aviv's nuclear arsenal. It has also abused its veto power at the UN Security Council to block any resolution that it considers critical of the Israeli regime.

Middle Eastern countries, however, are beginning to question White House's "don't ask, don't tell" policy towards the supposed Israeli nuclear arsenal, which according to Arab states threatens the region's security.

Meanwhile, world powers have used a current non-proliferation review conference in New York to underline Tel Aviv's refusal to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and also campaign for a nuclear-free Middle East.

According to Reuters, however, Israel has expressed dissatisfaction for being discussed at the NPT forum.
