Lithuania has completed its participation in the Ottawa Convention on the prohibition of anti-personnel mines. This decision became final six months after notifying the UN, as reported by the LRT portal.
According to the information provided, the deadline expired on December 27, which was set from the moment Vilnius notified the UN Secretary-General. This convention prohibits the use, production, and stockpiling of anti-personnel mines.
