To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Even when mines are found in a conflict zone with the country of origin marked, it does not necessarily mean that they were exported directly. Mines are also frequently copied because State enterprises do not hold valid patents over mines. The lack of reliable data has led to calls for international transparency in land- mine transfers. The Arms Project of Human Rights Watch suggests that the obvious mechanism for achieving such transparency is the United Nations Register of Con- ventional Arms.... Neither anti-personnel nor anti-tank land-mines are currently cov- ered by the United Nations Register. The 1993 regular session oi the United Nations General Assembly adopted, by consensus, a resolution that calls upon States "to agree to a moratorium on the ex- f)ort of anti-personnel land-mines that pose grave dangers to civilian popu- ations". [6] It is hoped that a moratorium will be swiftly and fully implemented. NOTES [1] The information in this section is derived largely from a Physicians for Human Rights database, which is described in detail in their publication Land-mines: A Deadly Legacy, 1993.
