ABOUT
ENACTMENT OF THE CONVENTION ON THE PROHIBITION OF THE
DEVELOPMENT, PRODUCTION, STOCKPILING AND USE OF
CHEMICAL WEAPONS AND ON THEIR DESTRUCTION
(THE CONVENTION ON THE BANNING OF DEVELOPMENT,
PRODUCTION, STOCKPILING, AND USE
THE CHEMICAL WEAPONS AND THE MUSICIANS.

I. UMUM

., 1. The attempted ban on chemical weapons has begun since more than a century ago. In 1874 European countries agreed to release the Brussels Declaration, which prohibited the use of poison and poison bullets in the war. At the next stage it was signed a declaration in The Hague Conference in 1899 which condemned the use of a single projectile that was the diffusion of gases that resulted in asphyxiating or destructive (deleterious).
., 2. Despite these declarations, chemical weapons remained in use, even in World War I having resulted in the casualties of more than a hundred thousand people dead and about a million people injured.
.,
The Protocol for the Prohibition of the Use in War of Asphyxiating, Poisonous or Other Gases, and of Bacteriological Methods of Warefare (Protocol Prohibdiction). Use in the War of Breathing of Breathing, Toxic Gases or Other Gas, and of the Method of War with the Bacterium Use), which was signed on June 17, 1925, was subsequently called the Geneva protocol in 1925. The Geneva Protocol forbids the use of gas-gas warfare which results in shortness of breath and toxicity, liquids, objects or similar equipment, and prohibits the use of bacteria in methods of warfare. Although the 1925 Geneva Protocol forbids the use of chemical weapons and chemical weapons, it does not prohibit the development, production, stockpiling or distribution, nor does it regulate the mechanism and procedure of handling it in the case of the Geneva Protocol. The offense.
., 3. Due to the weakness of the 1925 Jenew Protocol, as well as growing awareness of the dangers of mass destruction by these weapons, the international community continued to attempt to ban the total chemical weapons. In 1948, the UN Conventional Arms Commission established chemical weapons and germ weapons as weapons of mass destruction. In 1966 the United Nations General Assembly Resolution as the first Resolution to request that it would be negotiated for the prohibition of chemical weapons and germ weapons. In 1968 The Eighteen-nations Committee on Disarmament began to negotiate the methods of banning these weapons.
.,
.,, the concerns of the international community at that time against the dangers of chemical weapons were also reflected in the 1969 UN General Security report titled Chemical and Bacteriological (Biological) Weapons and the Effect of their Possible Use (Chemical Weapons and the Chemical weapons). Bacteria (Biology) and the Impact of the Possible Use).
., 4. At first the issue of chemical weapons and biological weapons was handled together with one approach in the Committee for Disarmament of the 18 Countries. However, in 1971 it was agreed to separate it, in order to achieve the prohibition of biological weapons first given that the military aspect of biological weapons was considered more dangerous than chemical weapons. In 1972, after being handed a draft script by the Eastern European countries on one side and the United States on the other, it was successfully agreed upon the Convention for the Prohibition of Development, Production and Stockpiling Of Weapons (Biology), The Toxic Weapon. as well as about the Disclaiers, whose full name is Convention on the Prohobition of the Development, Production and stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin weapons and on their destruction. The convention opened its signatories on 10 April 1972 and entered into force on 26 March 1975.
. .5. The Convention for the Prohibition of Biological Weapons was seen as a first step for the possibility of a thorough prohibition of chemical weapons.
.,
., along with the increasing success of the modern chemical industry in many countries, the number of countries that could potentially have chemical weapons increased sharply.
.,, in the 1980 Disarmament Conference that carried out his hearings in Geneva began to negotiate one convention on the prohibition of chemical weapons. However, the progress of the Convention's settlement was only achieved over a decade after the principle of principle deals with sensitive issues that concern verification of the implementation of the convention. The completion of the convention was also supported by the progress of bilateral negotiations between the two superpowers, the Soviet Union and the United States. In 1989 the two countries could even reach one bilateral agreement for the removal of most of their chemical weapons stockpiles.
., 6. On 3 September 1992 the Disarmament Conference in Geneva successfully completed negotiations and passed the text of the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction. The so-called Chemical Weapons Convention (KSK). At the KSK Signing Conference held on 13 January 1993 in Paris. KSK was signed by 130 countries, including Indonesia. Currently, the KSK has been signed by 169 countries.
., 7. The success of the KSK was the success of a multilateral effort that had never existed before. With KSK, one category of weapons of mass destruction (chemical weapons) was removed, and the removal was overseen by a very strict universal verification system. With the presence of a verification system for its adherence, the KSK is a new milestone for the resolution of international security issues, in particular the resolution of the problem of disarmament, which is based on the agreement and the terms of the agreement. The scrutiny of the implementation is tied internationally.

II. THE REASON INDONESIA IS THE STATE OF THE KSK PARTY
