Abstract
The poisoning of a former russian spy in Salisbury, England, in march 2018, led to the Discovery of several chemical weapons
not included in the Chemical Weapons Convention, allegedly developed by the URSS and not declared by Russia. This, in some way,
has made diplomatic pressure to modify the lists of chemicals forbbiden or controle by the CWC, with some reluctancia by the
russian government and some of their alias. The Organización for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has started actions
to include novichok agents in the lists of prohibited agents. This is the story.
