The
European Union has a long history of support to mine action, even
before the Ottawa Convention was adopted in 1997. In fact, the EU was
among the first to condemn the indiscriminate character of
anti-personnel landmines and to recognise the unbearable suffering they
impose on civil populations.
About
one third of EU support for mine action is provided through the
Commission's Instrument contributing to Stability and Peace (IcSP). This
brochure covers support funded by the EU- Institutions. Through
diplomatic and financial support initiatives, the European Union will
continue to be one of the leading actors in making the world free of
mines.
