This is the quote from ElBaradei:

"I think there were probably more efforts to intimidate Hans Blix, because there were more serious concerns about chemical and biological (weapons)," he said.

"Hans complained a lot about the media campaign, some of the administration's efforts to put pressure on him."


"I think" means that he supposes. Yes, he adduces a basis for that speculation, but complaints about pressure do not directly translate into complaints about "intimidation". I have had pressure put on me about things that I would not characterize as intimidating........
