The Foreign Minister of Syria is now on board with joining and forming the Chemical Weapons Convention and Tehran and Iran's leader was a large influence in that decision. Faisal al-Meqdad said "the assistance and consultation were constructive and helpful." After reading this article and many others about the disposal of the chemical weapons it was interesting to see the UN and the OPCW quickly putting deadlines and organizations intact to prevent these weapons from being used, created, distributed, destructed and stockpiled. These weapons are considered capable of mass destruction and so implementing global laws are very wise. I also see these laws being somewhat concerning because we the rest of the population have to trust that these offshore facilities and laws are all being followed up with and are actually safe. The guidelines of disposal seem to be revolving around keeping people of the countries safe but there are far more issues environmentally that we have to factor in because now or later they will absolutely effect us. The convention has approved and accepted the help from the United States, we are very quick to want to support the destruction and disposal and funding for Syria to give up these weapons but there seems to be an unseen fire behind our fuel to help and Syria's to give them up. These are the factors of this issue that I would want to read articles on but they are not covered or possibly shared in bias ways. This also sheds light on the tricky topic of who started the chemical weapon creation and use other than the extremists on either sides of the parties.
