An Ethiopian scholar says the U.S. opposition to negotiations on a verification protocol for the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) is worrisome.
According to public information, the United States has conducted more bio-military activities than any other country in the world. It is also the only country that has used biological and chemical weapons in multiple wars, and the only country that opposes the establishment of a multilateral verification mechanism for the Biological Weapons Convention, a public stand held by the United States for more than two decades.
