A Bosnian soldier searches for mines in fields near the banks of the river Bosnia which were flooded, near the town of Visoko 30 km north of Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina on Tuesday May 20, 2014. At least two dozen people have died and tens of thousands of people have been forced from their homes. But in addition to the usual dangers, the flooding has unearthed landmines left over from Bosnia's 1992-95 war and washed away the signs that marked them. (AP Photo/Sulejman Omerbasic)

An United Nations deminer demonstrates landmine removal techniques inside the U.N. controlled buffer zone dividing Cyprus into an internationally recognized Greek Cypriot south and a breakaway Turkish Cypriot north, on Thursday, Jan. 20 2011. Deminers are scheduled to leave Cyprus next month after clearing and destroying 27,000 landmines from 74 minefields inside the buffer zone in the wake of hostilities in 1974 when Turkey invaded after a coup by supporters of uniting the island with Greece. The deminers have released 9.7 million sq. meters (105 million sq. feet) of land inside the 180 kilometer (112 mile) long buffer zone for normal use, including farming, as well as contributing to reconciliation efforts between the two communities by facilitating more north-south crossing points. The U.N. estimates that as many as 15,000 landmines could remain on the island. (AP Photo/Philippos Christou)

Il presidente Donald Trump ha revocato le restrizioni statunitensi all’uso delle mine antiuomo rendendo vano il lavoro della Campagna internazionale contro le mine antiuomo, che ha ricevuto il premio Nobel per la Pace nel 1997. Così ha commentato Nicoletta Dentico che dal 1993 ha guidato in Italia la Campagna: «Dopo aver condotto per 7 anni la campagna italiana contro queste orrende armi, vivo con dolore profondo la revoca da parte di Trump della sospensione di utilizzare le mine voluta da Obama. Era necessario aderire al trattato vincolante, a suo tempo. Questo non è riuscito neppure al premio per la pace Obama. La regressione è molto seria. E molto, molto dolorosa. Anche perché rischia di innescare una corsa al rilancio delle mine da parte di altri stati che in 23 anni non hanno mai messo al bando questi ordigni di distruzione di massa».

Nelle foto Ap le immagini si riferiscono all’ospedale di Emergency che cura le vittime delle mine in Afghanistan, oltre alle operazioni di sminamento in diverse parti del mondo e gli ordigni micidiali esposti durante le conferenze internazionali.
