THE HAGUE: Russia provided the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons with at least 30 diplomatic notes that prove Ukraine's use of banned chemicals, the country’s Deputy Industry and Trade Minister Kirill Lysogorsky said.
"The Kiev regime continues to systematically use toxic chemicals and chemical riot control agents against the Russian Armed Forces, civilians and the leadership of Russian regions in the zone of the special military operation," he said at the 29th Conference of the States Parties of the OPCW. "Relevant proof, which was based on sample analyses, has been provided to the OPCW Technical Secretariat for distribution to States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention, as well as to the UN Security Council and the UN General Assembly."
"More than 30 such notes have already been handed over," the official went on to say. "Recently, literally in October and November, two notes were handed over to provide proof of the use of banned chemicals by the Ukrainian armed forces."
Lysogorsky asked the technical secretariat and OPCW member states to treat this information as responsibly as possible.
"The perpetrators of these crimes must be subjected to just punishment," he said.
