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.
