PRESS RELEASE

The Tenth Session of the Conference of the States Parties (CSP) of the
Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) was held on November
10-13 in The Hague, Netherlands. The representatives of the 120 states parties
to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) took part in the work of the forum.

The session's focus was questions of elimination of chemical weapons. States
parties positively responded to Russia's information on approval of a new
version of the Federal Targeted Program, on the course of its fulfillment, and
in particular, on the planned commissioning of new facilities for the
destruction of CW agents at Kambarka,. Udmurt Republic, and Pochep, Bryansk
Region.

The Director General of the Technical Secretariat of the OPCW, Rogelio Pfirter,
in his speech gave a high assessment to the efforts of Russia for destroying
chemical weapons and appealed to all the countries rendering us financial and
technical assistance to fulfill their pledges in full and on time.

The CSP took decisions on important questions of the implementation of the CWC
and the functioning of the OPCW. They are aimed at helping onward progress in
chemical disarmament and measures to strengthen the regime for the
nonproliferation of chemical weapons and to enhance the effectiveness of the
Organization's activities.

The Conference unanimously approved further steps to facilitate implementing the
Action Plans to achieve the universality of the CWC and its implementation at
the national level, noting the progress made in these fields and the substantial
contribution of these arrangements to the further consolidation and
strengthening of the Convention regime. The Conference approved changes to the
interim periods of chemical weapons destruction in Libya.

An important decision was the reelection of the Argentine Rogelio Pfirter as the
Director General of the Technical Secretariat for a new four-year term.

The session of the Conference approved a budget and a program of activities of
the OPCW for 2006, and adopted a decision to promote the development of
international cooperation in the field of chemical activity for peaceful
purposes. The Conference also supported the proposal from the Director General
of the Technical Secretariat to designate April 29 as the Day of Remembrance of
All Victims of Chemical Warfare. A number of decisions were made on other issues
of the Organization's activity as well.

The election of members of the OPCW Executive Council for a new two-year term
took place. Russia became one of them.
