How bout you grok this:
The CWC was ratified by the Senate that same month. Since then, Albania, Libya, Russia, the United States, and India have declared over 71,000 metric tons of chemical weapon stockpiles, and destroyed about a third of them.

Having not meet their goal, the U.S. government estimates remaining stocks will be destroyed by 2017.[citation needed]
