Geneva, June 17, 1925
<hr>

THE UNDERSIGNED
PLENIPOTENTIARIES, in the name of their respective
Governments: 

Whereas the use in war of asphyxiating, poisonous or
other gases, and
of all analogous liquids, materials or devices, has been
justly condemned
by the general opinion of the civilised world;
and 

Whereas the prohibition of such use has been declared in
Treaties to
which the majority of Powers of the world are Parties;
and 

To the end that this prohibition shall be universally accepted
as a part
of International Law, binding alike the conscience and the
practice of nations;
declare: 

That the High Contracting Parties, so
far as they are not already Parties
to Treaties prohibiting such use,
accept this prohibition, agree to extend
this prohibition to the use of
bacteriological methods of warfare and agree
to be bound as between
themselves according to the terms of this declaration. 

The High
Contracting Parties will exert every effort to induce other
States to
accede to the present Protocol. Such accession will be notified
to the
Government of the French Republic, and by the latter to all signatory
and
acceding Powers, and will take effect on the date of the notification
by
the Government of the French Republic. 

The present Protocol, of
which the French and English texts are both
authentic, shall be ratified as
soon as possible. It shall bear today's
date. 

The ratifications of
the present Protocol shall be addressed to the Government
of the French
Republic, which will at once notify the deposit of such ratification
to
each of the signatory and acceding Powers. 

The instruments of
ratification of and accession to the present Protocol
will remain deposited
in the archives of the Government of the French Republic. 

The
present Protocol will come into force for each signatory Power as
from the
date of deposit of its ratification, and, from that moment, each
Power will
be bound as regards other Powers which have already deposited
their
ratifications. 

In witness whereof the Plenipotentiaries have signed
the present Protocol.
Done at Geneva in a single copy, the seventeenth day
of June, One Thousand
Nine Hundred and Twenty-Five.(*)
