🇬🇧 English

This decision extends the EU-backed OPCW project from 24 months to 36 months, giving the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons more time to complete planned work on non-routine missions and investigative capacity. The change does not create new compliance duties for businesses. Its practical effect is mainly institutional: it keeps EU support available for OPCW planning and investigations, including work linked to chemical weapon allegations in Syria, Ukraine, and other conflict settings.
