Description: Proposals for a chemical-weapon-free-zone (CWFZ) were put forward in the Palme Commission Report following biparty talks between East and West Germany. These essays explore the multifaceted implications of the CWFZ concept for European security, and for the Geneva endeavors to ban chemical warfare worldwide. The essays present contrasting views on the subject from American, Soviet, English, French, and East and West German experts, along with background information.
