Due to the presence of countries openly opposing a total ban in Ottawa, consensus is difficult to achieve. The political "Ottawa Declaration" is accepted only in the last moment, after protracted negotiations. The main document, the Agenda for Action on Anti-Personnel (AP) Mines, fails to get consensus. Due to a compromise proposed by Austria it is finally accepted, but only as "paper of the Chairman".<a href="#cite_note-31">[31]</a> The purpose of the Conference is "to catalyze practical efforts to move toward a ban and to create partnerships ... essential to building the necessary political will to achieve a global ban on AP mines".<a href="#cite_note-32">[32]</a> The project of a Convention on a Total Ban of APMs, advocated by the Austrian representative, Werner Ehrlich, is therefore low on the agenda and produces mainly negative reactions, including from like-minded countries, considering it to be premature,<a href="#cite_note-33">[33]</a> from the <a href="/wiki/European_Union" title="European Union">European Union</a> – which blocks the distribution of the prepared Draft at the Conference,<a href="#cite_note-34">[34]</a> and even from leading humanitarian organizations, such as the <a href="/wiki/International_Committee_of_the_Red_Cross" title="International Committee of the Red Cross">International Committee of the Red Cross</a> (ICRC) and the <a href="/wiki/International_Campaign_to_Ban_Landmines" title="International Campaign to Ban Landmines">International Campaign to Ban Landmines</a> (ICBL), fearing waste of time and detraction from the priority of urgent practical measures.<a href="#cite_note-35">[35]</a> The turning point is the announcement by the Austrian representative, that no time must wasted as he has a complete Draft of such a Convention at his disposal,<a href="#cite_note-36">[36]</a> and his invitation to start immediately a fast-track, free-standing negotiating process in Vienna – outside the UN <a href="/wiki/Conference_on_Disarmament" title="Conference on Disarmament">Conference on Disarmament</a> (CD) – notoriously blocked for many years by the lack of consensus.<a href="#cite_note-37">[37]</a> The Canadian Minister for Foreign Affairs, <a href="/wiki/Lloyd_Axworthy" title="Lloyd Axworthy">Lloyd Axworthy</a>, instantly supports this proposal as a chance for a successful conclusion of the Conference and decides to task Austria with preparing the draft for these negotiations,<a href="#cite_note-38">[38]</a> suggesting that they should be concluded by the end of the year 1997 in Ottawa. This important decision is reflected in the text of the "Chairmen's Agenda for Action on Anti-Personnel (AP) Mines" as follows: "To lay the necessary groundwork for a legally-binding international agreement to ban AP mines, Austria will produce a first draft and Canada will produce a possible framework for the verification of such an agreement".<a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> Minister Lloyd Axworthy thereby starts the so-called "Ottawa Process", while countries opposed to a total ban are too shocked and too surprised to block this initiative.<a href="#cite_note-40">[40]</a></dd> <dd>November: A further enhanced third draft of the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention is prepared by Ehrlich and sent out worldwide.

One example was the well-intended attempt made by Canada to win the support of Countries opposed to a total ban – in particular the US – by proposing a new approach: To replace the Draft Convention by a new text, composed of a "Chapeau-Convention", containing generalities only, and four annexed protocols, each one dealing with one of the main prohibitions: production, stockpiling, transfer and use of anti-personnel mines.<a href="#cite_note-auto2-46">[46]</a> This approach would allow some additional countries to join the process but at the price of allowing them to pick and choose only those prohibitions compatible with their military needs. This concept, which would keep only the appearance of a total ban treaty, would risk creating a confusing situation of varying legal situations, and would, in the first place, postpone a real comprehensive total ban, potentially indefinitely. This proposal did however not materialise as the US rebuffed the idea, believing that they could steer the negotiations into the Conference on Disarmament where it would be subject to the consensus rule.<a href="#cite_note-auto2-46">[46]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Attempts_to_block_the_project_of_a_Total_Ban_Convention">Attempts to block the project of a Total Ban Convention</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Attempts to block the project of a Total Ban Convention">edit</a>]</div> Countries opposing a total ban of APMs because of their military necessities had an interest to prevent any negotiations on a total ban and in particular in free standing negotiations as proposed by Austria. The smart way to achieve this aim was to insist on holding the relevant negotiations in the framework of the competent forum of the UN for disarmament negotiations, the Conference on Disarmament (CD).

The campaign for what became the Ottawa Treaty was led by a group of powerful non-governmental organizations, and instead of working within existing multilateral frameworks, including the <a href="/wiki/Conference_on_Disarmament" title="Conference on Disarmament">Conference on Disarmament</a>, based at the UN compound in Geneva (the <a href="/wiki/Palace_of_Nations,_Geneva" class="mw-redirect" title="Palace of Nations, Geneva">Palais des Nations</a>), an ad hoc framework was created that detoured around existing intergovernmental processes. Critics alleged that this represented a challenge to the sovereignty and responsibility of nation states for the defense of their citizens.<a href="#cite_note-94">[94]</a> Substantively, critics view the treaty as naive and idealistic, in attempting to erase the reality of security threats that lead armies and defense forces to rely on landmines for protection against invasion and terror attacks. As a result, ratification has been far from universal, and many of the states that do not currently intend to ratify the treaty possess large stockpiles of anti-personnel mines.<a href="#cite_note-95">[95]</a> So far 35 countries have not signed the treaty; nonsignatories include the United States, Russia, China, Myanmar, United Arab Emirates, Cuba, Egypt, India, Israel, and Iran.<a href="#cite_note-96">[96]</a> Opponents of banning anti-personnel mines give several reasons, among them that mines are a cheap and therefore cost-effective <a href="/wiki/Area_denial_weapon" title="Area denial weapon">area denial weapon</a>. Opponents claim that when used correctly, anti-personnel mines are defensive weapons that harm only attackers,<a href="#cite_note-97">[97]</a> unlike ranged weapons such as ballistic missiles that are most effective if used for preemptive attacks. Furthermore, opponents claim that the psychological effect of mines increases the threshold to attack and thus reduces the risk of war.<a href="#cite_note-kokoomusnuoret-98">[98]</a> The Ottawa Treaty does not cover all types of unexploded ordnance. <a href="/wiki/Cluster_bomb" class="mw-redirect" title="Cluster bomb">Cluster bombs</a>, for example, introduce the same problem as mines: unexploded bomblets can remain a hazard for civilians long after a conflict has ended. A separate <a href="/wiki/Convention_on_Cluster_Munitions" title="Convention on Cluster Munitions">Convention on Cluster Munitions</a> was drafted in 2008 and was adopted and entered into force in 2010. As of February 2022, there are 110 state parties of the CCM.<a href="#cite_note-99">[99]</a> In theory, mines could be replaced by manually triggered <a href="/wiki/Claymore_mine" title="Claymore mine">Claymore mines</a>, but this requires the posting of a sentry. Opponents point out that the Ottawa Convention places no restriction whatsoever on anti-vehicle mines which kill civilians on tractors, on school buses, etc. The position of the United States is that the inhumane nature of landmines stems not from whether they are anti-personnel as opposed to anti-vehicle but from their persistence. The United States has unilaterally committed to never using persistent landmines of any kind, whether anti-personnel or anti-vehicle, which they say is a more comprehensive humanitarian measure than the Ottawa Convention. All US landmines now self-destruct in two days or less, in most cases four hours. While the self-destruct mechanism has never failed in more than 65,000 random tests, if self-destruct were to fail the mine will self-deactivate because its battery will run down in two weeks or less. That compares with persistent anti-vehicle mines which remain lethal for about 30 years and are legal under the Ottawa Convention.<a href="#cite_note-100">[100]</a><a href="#cite_note-101">[101]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Estonia">Estonia</h4>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=16" title="Edit section: Estonia">edit</a>]</div> In Estonia, a group of 20 MPs in the <a href="/wiki/Parliament_of_Estonia" class="mw-redirect" title="Parliament of Estonia">Parliament of Estonia</a> from the <a href="/wiki/Conservative_People%27s_Party_of_Estonia" title="Conservative People's Party of Estonia">Conservative People's Party of Estonia</a>, headed by the former Chief of Defence <a href="/wiki/Ants_Laaneots" title="Ants Laaneots">Ants Laaneots</a> presented a bill to withdraw from the Ottawa Treaty on October 2022.

UNGA Resolution 66/29, for example, was adopted on 2 December 2011 by a vote of 162 in favor, none opposed, and 18 abstentions.<a href="#cite_note-164">[164]</a> Since the first UNGA resolution supporting the Mine Ban Treaty in 1997, the number of states voting in favor has ranged from a low of 139 in 1999 to a high of 165 in 2010.

A small number of core groups mobilized on the landmines problem worked closely with a wider variety of NGOs, including churches, prominent children's and women's rights groups, disarmament and development groups, in order to produce concerted political pressure, as well as with the media to keep the issue in the forefront. Because of this unparalleled involvement of the global public, and their success in lobbying for this initiative, university political science and law departments frequently study the socio-historical initiatives that led to the Ottawa process, arguing it is a leading modern example of the power of peaceful democratic expression and a method for mobilization on disarmament issues or more broadly. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Jody_Williams_and_The_International_Campaign_to_Ban_Landmines">Jody Williams and The International Campaign to Ban Landmines</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=26" title="Edit section: Jody Williams and The International Campaign to Ban Landmines">edit</a>]</div> The organization the <a href="/wiki/International_Campaign_to_Ban_Landmines" title="International Campaign to Ban Landmines">International Campaign to Ban Landmines</a> and its founding coordinator, <a href="/wiki/Jody_Williams" title="Jody Williams">Jody Williams</a>, were instrumental in the passage of the Ottawa Treaty, and for these efforts they jointly received the 1997 <a href="/wiki/Nobel_Peace_Prize" title="Nobel Peace Prize">Nobel Peace Prize</a>. However, since efforts to secure the treaty started over a decade before Williams involvement and the fact that the treaty was a joint effort of so many people from all over the world, including hundreds of influential political and private leaders, some felt that Williams should decline to personally benefit from the award of the 1997 Nobel Peace Prize.<a href="#cite_note-166">[166]</a><a href="#cite_note-167">[167]</a> Williams herself has said she feels the organization deserved the award while she did not, and emphasized the collective nature of the movement; as the chair of a group of female Peace Prize recipients, she has used her status as a Peace Prize recipient to bring concerns of woman-led grassroots organizations to the attention of governments.<a href="#cite_note-168">[168]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Werner_Ehrlich">Werner Ehrlich</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=27" title="Edit section: Werner Ehrlich">edit</a>]</div> Available sources such as the study on the Ottawa Treaty made by Stuart Maslen<a href="#cite_note-169">[169]</a> and an article published by Werner Ehrlich in 1996<a href="#cite_note-170">[170]</a> indicate that the key figure in the making of the Ottawa Treaty was the Austrian diplomat Werner Ehrlich, head of the Disarmament Unit at the Austrian Ministry for Foreign Affairs in 1995/96: He initiated the process by making the first draft of the future Treaty in April 1996 and succeeded to get this project and the proposed unorthodox procedure – to negotiate this Convention outside the Conference on Disarmament (CD) – adopted by the Ottawa Conference in October 1996 – in spite of nearly universal opposition. It was an uphill struggle. This proposal was understandably rejected by countries which see anti-personnel mines as essential for national defense. Consequently, they tried repeatedly to block the project or to steer it to a dead end in the CD. The proposal was however also opposed by Countries and NGO's supporting a total ban, because of their conviction that practical measures would be more conducive to a total ban than a Convention, A view which was reflected in the "purpose" of the 1996 Ottawa Conference: "to catalyze practical efforts to move toward a ban and to create partnerships essential to building the necessary political will to achieve a global ban on AP mines." But this meant in fact, that a total ban was postponed to a remote future: until practical efforts may have convinced one day Countries depending on APMs for their defense, that APMs are useless or counterproductive. The approach of Werner Ehrlich was different: It was essential to delegitimize as soon as possible any use of APMs by the adoption of an instrument of international law on a total ban of APMs, because it would not only bind the Parties to the convention but would also have at least a moral effect on Countries not Parties by clearly contradicting the idea that the use of APMs is legal. It was also essential to elaborate this Treaty in a free standing negotiating process outside the Conference on Disarmament (CD), as there mine-affected Countries not Members of the CD would be excluded and opponents of a total ban could block the project immediately, e. g. simply by denying consensus to put it on the agenda.<a href="#cite_note-171">[171]</a> At the Ottawa Conference in October 1996 Ehrlich defended the project of a Total Ban Convention, against opponents of a total ban as well as even against leading humanitarian organizations such as the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (ICBL), which at the beginning saw the project as premature, as detraction or even as a waste of time.<a href="#cite_note-172">[172]</a> He succeeded finally against all odds – due in particular to the inspired and timely support of the Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs, <a href="/wiki/Lloyd_Axworthy" title="Lloyd Axworthy">Lloyd Axworthy</a> – to get his project indorsed by the Conference: Austria was tasked to draft the text for the negotiations which were to be held – as proposed – in a free standing negotiating process, a procedure later called the "Ottawa Process". His third and final draft before leaving disarmament at the end of 1996 to become Austria's Ambassador to the Islamic Republic of Iran<a href="#cite_note-Stuart_Maslen_2004_p._28-173">[173]</a> was known as the "First Austrian Draft"<a href="#cite_note-Stuart_Maslen_2004_p._28-173">[173]</a> and served as the basis for the following negotiations leading to the adoption of the Mine Ban Treaty in December 1997 <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Canada's_Mine_Action">Canada's Mine Action</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=28" title="Edit section: Canada's Mine Action">edit</a>]</div> Mines Action Canada grew out of the efforts of Canadian non-governmental agencies concerned about the rapidly spreading impact of landmines and cluster munitions. The group was successful in garnering positive Canadian government attention to the call for a ban by mobilizing Canadians to demand action. By 1996, sustained and growing citizen action led Minister Axworthy of the Canadian Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade to collaborate with Mines Action Canada and the International Campaign to Ban Landmines. This in turn led to the Government of Canada challenging other countries to negotiate and sign a treaty banning ban landmines within one year. This call to action led directly to the signing of the "Convention on the Prohibition on the Use, Stockpiling, Production and Transfer of Anti-Personnel Mines and on their Destruction" commonly known as the 'mine ban treaty' one year later in December 1997. Mines Action Canada was hosted by Physicians for Global Survival, chaired by Valerie Warmington and coordinated by Celina Tuttle from the coalition's inception until after the treaty was signed. <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Diana,_Princess_of_Wales">Diana, Princess of Wales</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Ottawa_Treaty&action=edit&section=29" title="Edit section: Diana, Princess of Wales">edit</a>]</div> Once in the final stages leading into the treaty, the Ottawa Treaty was ardently championed by <a href="/wiki/Diana,_Princess_of_Wales" title="Diana, Princess of Wales">Diana, Princess of Wales</a>.
