"Madam President, I think that Mr Van Orden’s report reignites the debate about one of the security risks which still affects Europe. Anti-personnel landmines have been used extensively in conflicts such as the Balkans war, and continue to cause civilian casualties. Mine clearance in former conflict zones is an expensive and lengthy operation. Not all the countries affected have the funds required to carry out this activity. This is why it is difficult for the inhabitants to return to their homes and there is the risk of accidents occurring. I think that better coordination among the international donors would provide legal support for the gradual clearance of mines in conflict zones. It is also important to involve the local authorities in this action as they will benefit from it. In this context, I also urge specialist NGOs to focus their efforts and put an end to this problem."@en1
