Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (d) Neither 1 nor 2
Nuclear Security Summits (2010-2016) were a U.S.-led initiative convened by heads of state, not UN-sponsored events; thus statement 1 is incorrect. The International Panel on Fissile Materials is an independent NGO of experts and is not an organ of the IAEA, making statement 2 incorrect. With both statements wrong, option (d) is correct.
