Chemical Weapons Ban Organization Inspects Iranian Site

Following Iran’s agreement to a request made by the Chemical Weapons Ban Organization for inspecting Iranian sites, a team of inspectors from the organization paid a visit to a petrochemical complex in Iran’s southwestern province of Khuzestan from April 29 to May 3. A report released by the Foreign Ministry’s Information and Press Bureau said that during the four-day visit, inspectors verified the annual production statements of Khuzestan Petrochemical Complex and, as a result, approved Iran’s adherence to the international commitments it has undertaken under the Chemical Weapons Ban Convention.

Inspections are carried out on the basis of the statements issued by the member states of the Chemical Weapons Ban Organization, the report added.
