What the grant funds

The United States has determined that Russia is in non-compliance with the Chemical Weapons Convention, as indicated by its use of nerve agent in the poisonings of Sergei Skripal and Alexey Navalny, Russia retains an undeclared chemical weapons program. The United States has also concluded that the Russian Federation has failed to fulfill its Article II obligation to destroy or to divert to peaceful purposes and assessed that Russia maintained an offensive biological weapons program in violation of Article I of the Convention.
