Abstract
The 11 September 2001 attack on the USA revealed that terrorists are willing to inflict mass casualties and might use weapons of mass destruction (WMD) to increase the scope of their acts. Chemical weapons (CW) are the easiest WMD to use and obtain, and have been more frequently used in terrorist acts and terrorist threats. However, it is not very easy to produce them, and far easier to steal them. Poorly secured and protected Russian CW storages could become a source of CW for terrorists. The easiest way to prevent CW smuggling is to destroy chemical arsenals as soon as possible. The article addresses the problems associated with CW destruction in Russia and ways to solve them.
