Theatre of the Cruel As European countries announce their withdrawal from the Mine Ban Convention, questions mount over what, exactly, they hope to achieve.

Excellent article on the cruel and incomprehensible decision of #Finland & #Latvia gvts to leave the #minebantreaty, with #Poland, #Lithuania, and #Estonia likely to follow close behind. @magnuslovold.bsky.social @minefreeworld.bsky.social spoileralerts.substack.com/p/theatre-of...

"All countries have the right to protect themselves. But to do so by knowingly reaching for a weapon with such proven catastrophic impact on #civilians is irresponsible and incomprehensible" said our director @tamargabelnick.bsky.social

A foolish mistake on April Fool's Day. Planting hidden bombs on your soil does not protect your own people, it threatens their lives and limbs for many years.

Leaving the #minebantreaty would be a highly irrational response to people's rational fears in these difficult times. Landmines are horrific, outdated weapons that kill and maim mostly civilians. @lithuaniamfa.bsky.social @polandmfa.bsky.social @mfaestonia.bsky.social @latvianmfa.bsky.social

@latvianmfa.bsky.social @arlietas.bsky.social @baibabraze.bsky.social @tsahkna.bsky.social @radek-sikorski.bsky.social Anti-personnel #landmines were banned because almost all victims are innocent civilians, including children. Don't abandon the #MineBanTreaty @minefreeworld.bsky.social

#Landmines are hidden killers waiting to claim innocent people's lives for decades. 85% of #Landmine casualties are civilians.
