Russia Warns U.S. Over Ukraine Weapons of Mass Destruction 'Provocations'

In response to a Newsweek article, Russia has reiterated its claims that the U.S. is preparing "provocations" so it can accuse Moscow of using weapons of mass destruction (WMD).

The Russian embassy in the U.S. took exception to the op-ed by Bonnie Jenkins, the U.S. under secretary of state for arms control and international security, on the 25th anniversary of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) coming into force.

Jenkins wrote in the April 29 article for Newsweek that the anniversary "occurs under the shadow that Russia could use such weapons in Ukraine."

But the Russian embassy described the comments as "groundless accusations" and that Moscow is "once again unreasonably credited with the presence of undeclared chemical weapons and their use."
