RUSSIA APPLIES FOR MEMBERSHIP IN OPCW EXECUTIVE COUNCIL IN 2025-2027 — ENVOY
"We have already applied for membership in the Executive Council for the next
two-year term in 2025-2027," Vladimir Tarabrin said
THE HAGUE, July 15. /TASS/. Russia will try to return to the Executive Council
of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) and has
applied for membership in 2025-2027, Russia’s Permanent Representative to the
organization and Ambassador to the Netherlands Vladimir Tarabrin said.
"We have already applied for membership in the Executive Council for the next
two-year term in 2025-2027," he said. "Frankly speaking, I would refrain from
guessing about our chances. I would only say that we would not have even tried
if we did not believe in success."
"Naturally, we understand that our opponents will do their best and spare no
effort not to let us be reelected," he stressed. "This is a matter of principle
for them. In practice, it will mean that the West may resort to any
provocations, fraud, pressure, blackmail, threats, in other words, to use all
the tools they have to choke off access to the OPCW steering bodies for us. But,
I would like to repeat, we are don’t lose heart. We understand that a lot of
laborious work is ahead in the coming months and we are ready for it."
Russia was not reelected to the OPCW Executive Council for another two-year term
at the 28th conference for member states in November 2023. It won 65 votes
whereas 66 votes were needed. Back then, Lithuania, Poland, and Ukraine were
elected to represent the Eastern European Group in a period from May 2024 to May
2026. Romania and North Macedonia are holding membership until 2025. Russia may
claim one of these seats.
The 41-memebr Executive Council is the OPCW steering body. Its members are
elected for a term of two years at conferences of member nations. The Council
oversees the activity of the OPCW Technical Secretariat and the observance of
the Chemical Weapons Convention.
