Abstract
Negotiations to find a legally binding way to strengthen
the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention (BTWC)
of 1972 [1]are in danger of failing. The crisis was precipitated
during the current round of talks, now in its final
week in Geneva, when the US, alone amongst the negotiating
States, rejected the text of a protocol that has taken
six and a half years to negotiate.
