今天是国际社会指定的化学战受害者纪念日，每年我们都在这一天对他们表达敬意和缅怀之情。
this year’s observance is especially timely, as the spectre of chemical weapons is once again casting its ominous shadow. recent allegations of the use of these indiscriminate and morally repugnant weapons in syria serve as a reminder of the continuing vital importance of the chemical weapons convention.
鉴于当前化学武器的不详阴影再次出现，今年的纪念日来得尤为及时。最近有指控显示，在叙利亚境内使用了这种滥杀无辜、严重违反道义的武器。它提醒我们时至今日《化学武器公约》依然十分重要。
the convention is both practical and aspirational. it provides a framework for implementing chemical weapons disarmament and facilitating the peaceful uses of chemistry. it is also a highly symbolic instrument -- representing a determined refusal of states parties to allow the atrocities of the past to be repeated.
