lpv:translated text	"Mr President, the protection of the civilian population is one of the key principles of international law, and the irresponsible and indiscriminate use of mines causes hardship for civilians and puts their lives at risk, especially in the wake of conflicts. The reality concerning both anti-personnel mines and cluster weapons is that they kill and maim civilians in particular. That is why we need a shared change in attitude as to what sort of warfare countries should prepare themselves for. Many countries still consider cluster munitions to be vitally important for their security and defence. Finland is also acceding to the Ottawa Treaty, which prohibits the use of anti-personnel mines. In Finland, in connection with this debate, the possibility of replacing such mines with cluster weapons was also mentioned. Finland, however, does not intend to do this, but will look for other substitute methods, which is a positive step forward."@en1
