Information on the functioning of the Republic of Slovenia within the framework of membership in the Executive Council of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in the period 2026-2028
The Government of the Republic of Slovenia has accepted information on the functioning of Slovenia within the framework of membership in the Executive Council of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) in the period 2026-2028. After the expiration of the current membership in the UN Security Council (2024-2025), Slovenia continues its active cooperation in maintaining international peace and security by being elected to the Executive Council of the OPCW. The election to the OPCW Executive Council thus represents an important confirmation of our work so far and recognition of Slovenias active and responsible role in the international community.
Since the entry into force of the Chemical Weapons Convention, Slovenia has strongly advocated its general and effective implementation and is firmly committed to its goals - the complete elimination of chemical weapons, prevention of their recurrence and promotion of the peaceful use of chemistry for the benefit of humanity. The election to the Executive Council represents a further sign of our commitment to multilateralism, including through participation in the decision-making bodies of international organizations. Slovenia has been a member of the OPCW Executive Council only once so far (2000-2002).
At the national level, Slovenia ensures the implementation of the convention with robust legislation and an efficient national competent authority (Office of the Republic of Slovenia for Chemicals). Slovenia is a strong supporter of international cooperation, especially in the field of chemical safety, protection, education and capacity building, and strongly supports the role of science and technology in ensuring the continued relevance and effectiveness of the Convention.
In 2026, the Government of the Republic of Slovenia will allocate a contribution of EUR 30,000 for OPCW activities in Syria through the OPCW Trust Fund for Syria and a contribution of EUR 20,000 for OPCW activities in Ukraine through the OPCW Aid and Protection Fund.
