Chapter 5

The EU and Chemical Weapons

In this video, Ambassador Marjolijn van Deelen, the EU’s Special Envoy for Non-proliferation and Disarmament, explains

  • why chemical weapons control is of particular concern to the European Union,
  • how the EU actively supports the work of the OPCW
  • and what challenges the Chemical Weapons Convention is currently facing.

We thank the Ambassador for her contribution.
