The United State is worried about Syria delayed on handing over their chemical weapons. They believed only 4% of the amount of chemical weapons declare by the Syrian government have been removed. Syria's Chemical weapon is due to all be destroyed before June 30. The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), overseeing the destruction of Syria's chemical
arsenal is right now meeting in The Hague discussing the progress. Under the terms set by the UN, Syrian authorities are responsible for packing and safely transporting the chemical weapons to the Mediterranean port of Latakia, where the weapons are going to be destroyed in international waters. The main goal now is to ensure that the Syrian give up their chemical weapons without further delay.Firstly i am all pro for this operation, as in WW1 chemical weapon was used, and the damage that these weapons can do is huge. Also after WW1, every country in the world all promised that they are never going to use anymore chemical weapons, this is an international law set by the League of Nations and the United Nations now. I think we all should be concern about Syria right now, as they still possess those weapons, and they can still be used against their own people like what they did few months ago, so its crucial that Syrian government to give up their chemical weapons.
