With reference to 'Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW)', consider the following statements : 1. It is an organization of European Union in working relation with NATO and WHO. 2. It monitors chemical industry to prevent new weapons from emerging. 3. It provides assistance and protection to States (Parties) against chemical weapons threats. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

States that the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) was acceded to by 193 states, framing it as a near-universal global treaty rather than a regional (EU) instrument.

A student could infer that the implementing body for such a widely‑ratified treaty is likely a global organisation and therefore check whether OPCW is an independent international body rather than an EU agency.

Lists major multilateral chemical/environmental conventions (Rotterdam, Stockholm) as examples of international environmental agreements (MEAs), illustrating that chemical regulation frequently operates through global treaties.

Use the pattern that chemical-related regimes are commonly global MEAs to suspect OPCW is linked to a global convention (CWC) and thus not necessarily an EU organisation.

Describes the formal status of International Organization Partners (IOPs) associated with a treaty, showing treaties often create independent institutional partnerships and bodies.

A student could generalise that treaty implementation often uses specialised international organisations (not regional bodies like the EU) and therefore look up whether OPCW was established by an international treaty.

Gives an explicit example of an initiative 'administered by The European Commission' (GCCA), showing the EU creates and runs its own institutions/initiatives.

Compare this model (EU-administered body) with OPCW: if OPCW were an EU organisation, one would expect similar phrasing (e.g., 'administered by the European Commission'); the absence of such language in OPCW descriptions would suggest it is not an EU body.

Discusses the EU's role as a regional political and diplomatic actor distinct from global organisations such as the UN or WTO, highlighting the distinction between EU institutions and universal international bodies.

A student could use this distinction to reason that organisations tied to global universality (like those implementing near-universal treaties) are separate from EU-specific institutions and should verify OPCW's founding instrument and membership scope.
