The article is an attempt to explain the IAEA’s critical role in ensuring global nuclear safety and on the global nuclear governance system. The objective of the Agency’s operation is promotion of the peaceful use of nuclear energy, including the use of energy to produce electricity, along with establishment of a system of safeguards to ensure that the countries do not use the peaceful assistance for military purposes.The aim of the article is to present the principles of the internationalsystem of nuclear safeguards and the role of the IAEA in maintaining nuclear peace and nuclear challenges of non-proliferation regime reform. The duality of nuclear technology (dual use) causes the need of strengthening the competence-control and institutional resources of the IAEA. It is necessary to oblige the Member States to cooperate with the Agency’s inspectors. The Agency should also develop a procedure to standardize the rules, structure, and legal restrictions. In addition the UN Security Council should react faster in the case of non-compliance detection. A separate issue is the internationalization of the fuel cycle.

This article deals with the most pressing issues in the modern political-legal and security information agenda. The active hostilities on the territory of Ukraine have placed the world, and in particular the European Union, under the threat of a new artificial nuclear catastrophe, which could be provoked by the provocative actions of the Russian army at the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. Considering the relevance of the issue, the object of study is the political and legal system of Ukraine in the context of nuclear safety, which has undergone significant changes under the influence of European integration. For comprehensive coverage of the issue, the study examines the evolution of nuclear safety both in Ukraine and the European Union. Particular attention is paid to both the development of legislation and the formation of regulatory authorities. An important component of this study is a detailed analysis of the legal framework of both Ukraine and the European Union. Due to this, it was possible to clearly determine the scale of influence of the specific legislative acts. The study confirmed the impact of European integration on the main laws of Ukraine related to nuclear safety and the need to bring Ukrainian nuclear safety regulatory documents into line with the legislation of the European Union. This article deals with the EU supranational regulators such as WENRA and ENSREG have a significant impact on the regulatory and legal framework for nuclear safety. Ukraine made many commitments to improve control and develop its own regulatory body – the State Regulatory Inspectorate, which received significant autonomy under the influence of European initiatives. It should be stated that the influence of European integration as a political process is so profound that it leads to conceptual changes in the legislative and even institutional framework. The conclusions provide a few suggestions for improving the response system to factors such as hostilities, including at the legal level.

The nuclear issue of Iran has become a political discussion of significance in both Iran and Western countries. A considerable disjunction has emerged between the political views of Iran and the West. Iran claims that it is entitled to nuclear sovereignty over civilian nuclear power and has denied that it has a nuclear weapons program; Western governments feel that Iran’s “peaceful” nuclear program has hidden intentions to create nuclear weapons. International mediators have been making reconciliatory efforts with Iran but have met with little success. As a result, Iran is constantly criticized by the West, particularly the US and the EU, and has come under immense pressure, including facing economic sanctions by the UN Security Council and the IAEA in an effort to prod the regime into being more transparent in its nuclear activities. Despite this, Russia continues to support Iran’s nuclear program. Indeed, many geopolitical, strategic and economic considerations have compelled Russia to support Iran. This work is solely devoted to exploring the considerations and perspectives of Russia concerning Iran’s nuclear issue. It also includes an understanding of Iran’s nuclear motivations and aspirations with a view to calculating Moscow’s views.
