N2  - Considers progress since the Ottawa Convention was opened for signatures on 3rd December 1997. There are now 156 states-parties and the Convention is considered "one of the most successful multilateral arms treaties of recent years". Significant non-signatories are the USA, China, Russia, India, Pakistan, Burma, and Singapore but many of these prohibit export and the USA did not use a-p mines in Kosovo, Afghanistan or Iraq. While much remains to be done the track record so far is very encouraging
