| | 1925 Geneva Protocol, Genomics Gateway Website, Department of Peace Studies, University of Bradford |
| | The Protocol has become a part of customary international law and is therefore considered to be binding not only on the state parties but on all states. | | | Many state parties held reservations to the Protocol as to the right of retaliatory use, making it effectively a no-first-use treaty for those states. | | | A conference was held in Paris in 1989 aiming to 'reaffirm the 1925 Geneva Protocol' and on its 75th Anniversary in June 2000, the Protocol was referred to by United States President Bill Clinton as, "A major step toward protecting the world from the dangers of weapons of mass destruction."

| | Though it prohibits the use of bioweapons, it does not prevent the stockpile or development of such weapons and many state parties, at the time, reserved the right to strike against non-member states using such weapons or to retaliate when such weapons were used in a first strike. | | | Now known as the Geneva protocol of 1925, it is in observance by 130 parties, though 64 WHO member states are not included. | | | Nonetheless, the protocol's stipulations are considered to be international law and are binding to all nations even without their signature. |
