Libya's nuclear program was years away from producing a nuclear weapon and has been dismantled, International Atomic Energy Agency chief Mohamed ElBaradei said Monday.
ElBaradei, who completed a tour of four previously undisclosed sites in Tripoli, said it was a revelation to learn how Libya bought nuclear materials for its program through the black market.
"The program is very much at an early stage of development, where it is right now ... quite dismantled in fact. It's all in boxes," ElBaradei said. "They were far away from having an industrial-scale enrichment capability."
Some good news
