The Nazi regime was notorious for not upholding international treaties and conventions, as they sought to establish themselves as the dominant force in Europe and beyond. They were known to carry out significant war crimes and crimes against humanity, including the mass murder of civilians, minorities, and prisoners of war, in violation of international treaties and conventions.

It is unlikely that the Nazis abstained from using poisonous gas in warfare due to concerns about violating international treaties such as the 1925 Geneva Protocol, as they had already violated a number of treaties and conventions concerning the treatment of civilians and prisoners of war. The decision to refrain from using poisonous gas may have had more to do with practical and tactical concerns, such as concerns about retaliation, effectiveness, and logistical and financial costs.

In any case, the decision of the Nazi regime not to use poisonous gas as a weapon of war was not so much a reflection of their commitment to international law and ethics but rather their own strategic and practical considerations.
