Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 11:00:52 GMT

This month the world witnessed one of the greatest arms control milestones of our generation. On July 7, we eliminated the United States’ last remaining stockpile of chemical weapons, in accordance with the Chemical Weapons Convention (The Convention).Overall, we destroyed 30,610 tons of chemical weapons, including at the Pueblo Chemical Depot.

I sincerely thank the dedicated Americans who were employed at facilities in Johnston Atoll and at installations in Alabama, Arkansas, Indiana, Maryland, Oregon, Utah, Colorado, and Kentucky.They all contributed to this...
