The Republic of Cyprus and the OPCW

The Embassy of the Republic of Cyprus to the Kingdom of the Netherlands is also
the Permanent Representation of Cyprus to the Organization for the Prohibition
of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) which is based in The Hague. Cyprus is a staunch
supporter of the OPCW since its outset and fully ascribes to the vision for a
world free of chemical weapons. The Republic of Cyprus signed the Convention on
the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical
Weapons and on Their Destruction on 13/1/1993, which entered into force in
Cyprus on 27/09/1998.

The Republic of Cyprus participates in the OPCW’s Conference of States Parties
and follows the work of the OPCW Executive Council, as well as other meetings
and activities of the Organisation. The National Authority for the
implementation of the Convention in Cyprus is the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The Republic of Cyprus actively contributed to the collective multilateral
mission to destroy Syria’s chemical weapons, following United Nations Security
Council Resolution 2118 (2013). Cyprus served as the host country of the support
base of the OPCW-UN Joint Mission, and offered infrastructure and facilities to
other States which participated to the destruction of the Syria’ s chemical
weapons.

The Republic of Cyprus is a State of the Asian Region of the Organization since
1998. In May 2013, it successfully hosted the OPCW 11th Regional Meeting of
National Authorities of States Parties in Asia.
