Now that the Syrian chemical weapon beasts have been tamed, whats next?


Now that Syria has destroyed all its declared chemical weapons mixing and production facilities The Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons are having a difficult time finding a country willing to host the destruction of the evil poisons. 
According to the Associated Press "Not a single European Union nation came forward on Monday offering to host the destruction of Syria's poison gas stockpile,with many instead calling for the arsenal to be eradicated close to Syria itself." 
In a speech,Mr.Rama said it is "impossible" for the Balkan nation to take part in the operation.He also said no other nation have stepped forward to house a facility to dismantle the weapons.

The Foreign Minister Didier Reynders advised the OPCW to send experts and technology to the site in Syria so that the weapons can be destroyed in Syria's backyard.
I learned that  the final phase in destroying  the Chemical weapons stockpile is risky so I really can't pick a bone with the EU country leaders and civilians who seem to basically be saying"HELL NO WE WON'T HOST!" 
However, I will definitely feel a sense of relief once the weapons has finally been destroyed. Until then, we we are all just waiting to see who will reach out to OPCW with open arms for the devilish stockpile of chemical weapons.
