#Polyanskiy: Threat of possible use of chemical weapons by terrorists [in #Syria] is still there, to our deepest regret. As lately as 26 February,🇷🇺Defense Ministry reported that militants from “Jabhat al-Nusra” delivered tanks w/poisoning agents, presumably chlorine, to #Idlib. https://t.co/fOaWGcWWB5

#Polyanskiy: Investigation and Identification Team, as well as the Fact-Finding Mission for #Syria, violates the Chemical Weapons Convention as far as its principles of investigations, first of all those applying to collection and secure preservation of evidence. https://t.co/YJcQs8BDiq

#Polyanskiy: Biased conclusions of the #IIT became the basis for the punitive decision to incapacitate #Syria at the #OPCW on a far-fetched pretext. It was the 1st time such a step was taken against a sovereign state that complied with the #CWC faithfully. https://t.co/mYPJgEYzIh https://t.co/fV9qANP8Ld
