The Statute of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) defines eight areas from which candidate governments for election to the IAEA Board of Governors are chosen. Unlike the regional groups from which leadership posts at the United Nations are filled, the memberships of the IAEA areas are not strictly defined. The eight IAEA areas or regional groups are: * North America, consisting of 2 states; * Latin America, consisting of 22 states; * Western Europe, consisting of 24 states; * Eastern Europe, consisting of 27 states; * Africa, consisting of 40 or 41 states *; * Middle East and South Asia, consisting of 18 or 19 states *; * South East Asia and the Pacific, consisting of 10 states; and * Far East, consisting of 6 states. '' * Egypt has been alternately elected to the Board of Governors as a representative from both the African and the Middle East & South Asian areas. Israel has never been elected to the Board of Governors, as the Middle East and South Asia group refuses to accept it as a member. ==Area Membership== Unlike the regional groups from which leadership posts at the United Nations are filled, the memberships of the IAEA areas are not strictly defined. Broadly speaking, the following are members of the respective areas, as of July 2003.〔(Energy, Electricity and Nuclear Power Estimates for the Period up to 2030 ), International Atomic Energy Agency, July 2003 Edition. Referenced April 2007.〕" However, Israel has never been elected as a member of the Board from any region, and Egypt has on occasion been elected as a member of both the Africa and the Middle East/South Asia groups. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「International Atomic Energy Agency areas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
