## [OPCW Director-General visits Syria](https://cbrneworld.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3507:opcw-director-general-visits-syria&catid=12)
Written by Zoe Rutherford on 10 February 2025.
At the invitation of the Syrian caretaker Foreign Minister, the Director-General of the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW), Ambassador Fernando Arias, accompanied by a high-level delegation from the OPCW, visited Damascus to meet with Syria’s interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa and caretaker Foreign Minister Asaad Hassan al-Shaibani.
The meetings were long, productive and very open, with an in-depth exchange of information, which will serve as a basis to reach tangible results and break the stalemate that has lasted for over eleven years.
The visit marked a first step towards re-establishing a direct working relationship between the OPCW Technical Secretariat and Syria, following eleven years of stagnation and lack of progress with the former authorities. In their meeting, both sides discussed Syria’s obligations under the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC), the role and mandate of the OPCW, and the type of support the Technical Secretariat can provide to the Syrian caretaker authorities in eliminating the remnants of Syria’s chemical weapons programme.
“This visit marks a reset. After eleven years of obstruction by the previous authorities, the Syrian caretaker authorities have a chance to turn the page and meet Syria’s obligations under the Convention,” said Director-General Arias.
“My presence in Damascus reflects the OPCW’s commitment to rebuilding a relationship based on mutual trust and transparency,” he underlined. “For over a decade, Syria’s chemical weapons dossier was at a deadlock. Today, we must seize this opportunity together and break that impasse for the good of the Syrian people and the international community.”
Since 2013, Syria’s declaration of its chemical weapons programme has been incomplete, with significant quantities unaccounted for and a lack of cooperation by the former Syrian authorities. This led to the suspension of some of Syria’s rights in the OPCW Policy-Making Organs since April 2021. Director-General Arias underlined that the OPCW looks forward to working with Syria’s transitional government in addressing these open questions and implementing its responsibilities to regain its rights at the Organisation. For that purpose, he presented to the interim President and the caretaker Foreign Minister, the Secretariat’s [9-point Action Plan for Syria](https://organisationfortheprohibitionofchemicalweaponsopcw.cmail19.com/t/d-l-stlsjy-ihuhjikyti-y/).
The Director-General further emphasised that the OPCW stands ready to support Syria in meeting its obligations under the Convention. In doing so, the caretaker authorities will safeguard the Syrian people, help hold to account any identified perpetrators of chemical weapons use, and bolster the country’s reputation as a reliable and trusted member of the international community.
“This visit lays the ground for working together towards closing the Syrian chemical weapons file for good and fostering long-term compliance, regional stability, and contributing to peace and international security” said Director-General Arias.

## [CDC Researchers Ordered to Retract Papers Submitted to All Journals](https://cbrneworld.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3500:cdc-researchers-ordered-to-retract-papers-submitted-to-all-journals&catid=12)
Written by Zoe Rutherford on 03 February 2025.
Originally published in Medpage Today
The CDC has instructed its scientists to retract or pause the publication of any research manuscript being considered by any medical or scientific journal, not merely its own internal periodicals, *Inside Medicine* has learned. The move aims to ensure that no "forbidden terms" appear in the work. The policy includes manuscripts that are in the revision stages at journal (but not officially accepted) and those already accepted for publication but not yet live.
In the order, CDC researchers were instructed to remove references to or mentions of a list of forbidden terms: "Gender, transgender, pregnant person, pregnant people, LGBT, transsexual, non-binary, nonbinary, assigned male at birth, assigned female at birth, biologically male, biologically female," according to an email sent to CDC employees.
The policy goes beyond the previously reported pause of the CDC's own publications, [including *Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report* (*MMWR*),](https://www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdisease/generalinfectiousdisease/113905 "Opens in a new tab or window") which has seen two issues go unreleased since Jan. 16, marking the first publication gap of any kind in approximately 60 years. *Emerging Infectious Diseases* and *Preventing Chronic Disease*, the CDC's other major publications, also remain under lock and key, but have not yet been affected because they are monthly releases and both were released as scheduled in January, prior to President Donald Trump's inauguration. The policy also goes beyond the general communications gag order that already prevents any CDC scientist from submitting any new scientific findings to the public.
The edict applies to both any previously submitted manuscript under consideration and those accepted but not yet published. For example, if CDC scientists previously submitted a manuscript to the *New England Journal of Medicine*, *JAMA*, or any other publication, the article must be stopped and reviewed. (These are hypothetical, but are examples of major journals where CDC officials often publish.)
**Scale of Policy Unclear. Chaos, Uncertainly, and Fear Prevail**
How many manuscripts are affected is unclear, but it could be many. Most manuscripts include simple demographic information about the populations or patients studied, which typically includes gender (and which is frequently used interchangeably with sex). That means just about any major study would fall under the censorship regime of the new policy, including studies on COVID-19, cancer, heart disease, or anything else, let alone anything that the administration considers to be "woke ideology."
Meanwhile, chaos and fear are already guiding decisions. While the policy is only meant to apply to work that might be seen as conflicting with President Trump's executive orders, CDC experts don't know how to interpret that. Do papers that describe disparities in health outcomes fall into "woke ideology" or not? Nobody knows, and everyone is scared that they'll be fired. This is leading to what Germans call "vorauseilender Gehorsam," or "preemptive obedience," as one non-CDC scientist commented.

The Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Safety and Security Agency of Tajikistan joins IAEA’s network to strengthen nuclear security in Central Asia and beyond through enhanced cooperation and capacity-building initiatives.
Tajikistan’s Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear Safety and Security Agency (CBRN SSA) has been designated as a new IAEA Collaborating Centre, marking a significant step towards bolstering nuclear security in Central Asia. The official designation was announced during a signing ceremony held in Vienna, underscoring the growing cooperation between Tajikistan and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
#### Strengthening Nuclear Security in Central Asia
Lydie Evrard, IAEA Deputy Director General and Head of the Department of Nuclear Safety and Security, emphasized the importance of this collaboration, noting that the designation will enhance nuclear security efforts in the region. “The designation of CBRN SSA as an IAEA Collaborating Centre will strengthen the cooperation between Tajikistan and the IAEA to efficiently support regional activities in key areas of nuclear security,” Evrard said. “This will contribute to enhancing nuclear security in Central Asia and internationally,” she added.
The four-year agreement, covering the period from 2025 to 2029, aims to build capacity in the development and maintenance of nuclear security regimes within the region. Key areas of focus will include the assessment of nuclear security needs and priorities, cybersecurity in nuclear facilities, securing nuclear materials and facilities, and addressing issues related to nuclear or radioactive materials outside of regulatory control.
#### Training and Capacity-Building Initiatives
The workplan under the new agreement includes hosting regional and international training courses, workshops, and seminars on various aspects of nuclear security. The CBRN SSA will also develop training materials on detection techniques for illicit trafficking of nuclear and other radioactive materials, equipping regional stakeholders with the tools needed to effectively combat nuclear threats.
Ilhom Mirsaidzoda, Director of Tajikistan’s CBRN SSA, highlighted the importance of these initiatives in empowering the region. “Empowering our region through capacity building in chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear safety, security, and safeguards ensures a resilient and prepared community, ready to face the challenges of tomorrow,” Mirsaidzoda stated.
#### Longstanding Collaboration and Global Efforts
This new designation builds on a long history of collaboration between CBRN SSA and the IAEA. Over the past decade, CBRN SSA has hosted 13 IAEA events related to nuclear security. Additionally, Tajikistan’s agency is an active participant in key international networks, including the International Network of Front Line Officers and Organizations for Nuclear Security Detection and the International Network for Nuclear Security Training and Support Centres.
This designation also follows the IAEA’s recent expansion of its Collaborating Centres program. In 2024, the IAEA signed two new agreements with Brazil and Jordan and extended its collaboration with a centre in the Russian Federation. The total number of active Collaborating Centres for nuclear security now stands at 12, each contributing to the global effort to enhance nuclear safety and security.
#### About IAEA Collaborating Centres
An IAEA Collaborating Centre is a national institution, laboratory, or department recognized for its expertise in research, development, and training in areas relevant to the IAEA's objectives. Designated centres support IAEA activities by implementing agreed work plans in a variety of fields, including nuclear security. The official designation of a Collaborating Centre is formalized through a legally binding document outlining the goals, activities, and expected outcomes.
This new collaboration with Tajikistan highlights the continued global commitment to strengthening nuclear security frameworks, enhancing regional cooperation, and ensuring that countries are equipped to tackle emerging threats in the nuclear field.

Leading electricity, water, and natural gas provider [Liberty Utilities](https://libertyutilities.com/) has announced that it has selected global connected safety technology leader [Blackline Safety Corp. (TSX: BLN)](https://investors.blacklinesafety.com/) to help protect its frontline workers in North America, Bermuda and Chile.
Due to the need for faster emergency response for frontline workers and the rising occurrences of security events — including verbal abuse and physical aggression against staff by customers — Liberty turned to Blackline for a reliable, connected lone worker safety solution that could scale across their gas, water, and electric divisions and record interactions.
The company has deployed its first 300 Blackline wearable devices, including both Blackline’s leading [G7c (cellular)](https://www.blacklinesafety.com/solutions/lone-worker/g7-lone-worker) and [G7x (satellite)](https://www.blacklinesafety.com/solutions/lone-worker/g7-lone-worker) models.
“The world has changed, people have changed. If we don’t change with it, if we don’t outfit our folks with whatever we can to succeed or to fail safely, then you know we haven’t done our job, especially as a health and safety team,” said Kevin Spottiswood, Director, EHS (East Region) of Liberty Utilities.
Prior to using Blackline’s wearable technology, the company documented security events only manually in an ad hoc way. Now, Liberty’s frontline worker interactions are monitored and recorded by Blackline’s Safety Operations Centers (SOC) agents, with the wearables providing extensive protection through features such as:
· **Connectivity anytime, anywhere:** delivering both cellular and optional satellite connectivity for a failsafe way to keep in touch with workers, in even the most remote locations.
· **Real-time awareness:** providing access to worker location and instant, geo-stamped notifications when a worker is in distress to support a quick response.
· **Communication options**: reaching employees via two-way voice, text or push-to-talk.
· **Lone worker protection features**: providing manual (emergency SOS), automatic (falls, no-motion) and time-based (missed check-in) alerts.
· **24/7 live monitoring:** responding to alerts around-the-clock.
· **Automated reporting:** harnessing actionable information and a hassle-free way to understand compliance and record incidents.
After trialing multiple options, Spottiswood said Liberty chose Blackline’s connected safety platform as it offered instant visibility of their workers’ safety status, location, and a reliable way to reach them.
“To support the technology, Liberty developed a new lone worker policy with a clearer and more prescriptive definition of a lone worker, and a mandate that employees wear their Blackline device, regardless of division or region,” said Sean Stinson, President of Blackline Safety. “It’s a shift that has led to a change at Liberty, fostering a deeper culture of safety excellence, and peace of mind for frontline workers and the company.”
