The Rhodesian CBW programme is little known. It formed part of a counter-insurgency campaign during the war of the 1960s-1970s.
Very lucky to have spoken with @CrossbowLlc, an expert on this programme.

Looking forward to continuing working with @UNIDIR in 2023 to support the newly adopted intersessional programme of the #1972BWC!
Thank you for all your support during the Ninth #BWCRevCon
Last week, UNIDIR met with @ODA_Geneva and @BWCISU colleagues to discuss the outcomes of #BWCRevCon & the possible ways forward to support cooperative efforts for the advancement of the #1972BWC.
While we work on new projects, read our previous work 👉 unidir.org/BWC9-resource
Thank you @USFHealth for featuring my experience @OPCW! Putting my public health knowledge to work supporting @OPCW’s mission has been an incredibly rewarding experience personally and professionally. I’m excited to bring my newfound experience back home! lnkd.in/eYDihDYN

If you think Russia was sincere about wanting to clarify and resolve concerns at the BWC Meeting, read this - & then compare to the questions posed at the meeting. Can’t tell whether they WANT to telegraph insincerity or are simply extraordinarily inept. undocs.org/bwc/cons/2022/wp.…

Russia keeps spreading lies about DTRA CTR programs forgetting they were an active participant in the program from 1996-2013. Hear about the former partnership in this video. youtu.be/vbI7qmDi_9M
