lpv:translated text	"The European Parliament’s vote this afternoon on the resolution on banning cluster munitions was a fine example of unanimity. Alongside the Convention on Cluster Munitions (CCW), which has been signed by 110 countries to date, the European Parliament is calling on the Member States not to deviate from the convention and, in particular, to reject Protocol VI, which will be discussed in Geneva this month during the Fourth Review Conference of the CCW. This Protocol VI could permit the use, subject to conditions, of cluster munitions produced after 1980. This is an opportunity to point out the considerable human damage these weapons can cause: 98% of their recorded victims are civilians, and 5% to 40% of cluster munitions fail to explode on impact, thereby turning into anti-personnel mines. Millions of mines and explosive remnants of war are lying dormant in fields and along roads in more than 100 countries today. This is particularly true in Cambodia, Afghanistan, Angola and Vietnam. They kill or maim many years after the end of a conflict and also create another kind of handicap, that of not being able to work the land. Development in countries that often desperately need it is therefore ruled out."@en1
