Which of the following statements is correct?

Statement 01: The US backed the Islamic militants in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union in the 1980s, but later attacked them when Al Qaeda launched terrorist strikes against America on 11 September 2001.

Statement 02: 55 states acceded to the Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) and 81 states acceded to the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC) when they were opened for signature.

Only Statement 01 is true

The US backed the Islamic militants in Afghanistan against the Soviet Union in the 1980s, but later attacked them when Al Qaeda—a group of Islamic militants led by Osama bin Laden—launched terrorist strikes against America on 11 September 2001.

Disarmament requires all states to give up certain kinds of weapons. For example, the 1972 Biological Weapons Convention (BWC) and the 1992 Chemical Weapons
Convention (CWC) banned the production and possession of these weapons. More than 155 states acceded to the BWC and 181 states acceded to the CWC.
