May 25, 2011
The 41st General Assembly of the Organization of American States (OAS), to be held June 5 to 7 in San Salvador, will debate the text of a draft resolution approved today by the Permanent Council of the Organization that seeks to set the groundwork for “converting the Americas into the world’s first antipersonnel-landmine-free zone.”
The draft resolution, titled, “The Americas as an Antipersonnel-landmine-free Zone,” also stresses the responsibility of all member states to continue their vital cooperation in mine action as a national, subregional, and regional priority; urge the international donor community to continue its humanitarian support for victim rehabilitation and in ongoing demining activities, as appropriate; reiterate the importance of participation by all member states in the OAS Register of Antipersonnel Land Mines. It was presented today by the delegation of Canada with the joint sponsorship of Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Panama, and Peru.
The full text of the draft resolution, to be debated by the supreme decision-making body of the OAS before it is approved in its final version, is available here in Spanish.
