[REGNUM] The 60-year-old French citizen of Syrian origin was accused of supplying components for chemical weapons to Syria by French justice. This was reported on December 26 by Agence France-Presse (AFP).
According to the agency, the accused is the owner of a shipping company residing abroad. He was detained in the south of France, after which he was transferred to Paris in custody. Here the suspect was charged with involvement in war crimes and "conspiracy to commit crimes against humanity."
Recall that the UN Security Council resolution on the destruction of chemical weapons in Syria was adopted in 2013. During the next year, 2014, 1,200 tons of chemical warfare agents were removed from Syria and destroyed. Nine countries took part in the operation. Russia was one of them.
Earlier IA REGNUM reported that the European Union extended the sanctions regime for the use of chemical weapons proposed by the UK and France after the attacks in Syria and British Salisbury.
