Explanation:
Statement 1 is incorrect. The Nuclear Security Summits were not held under the aegis of the United Nations. They were a series of summits initiated by the United States to address the threat of nuclear terrorism. The summits were focused on nuclear security and were not directly organized or conducted by the United Nations.
Statement 2 is also incorrect. The International Panel on Fissile Materials (IPFM) is an independent organization and not an organ of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The IPFM is a group of experts from various countries that conducts research and provides recommendations on policy issues related to the management of fissile materials.
Therefore, neither statement 1 nor statement 2 is correct.
