Slovenia
Practice Relating to the Prohibition of Certain Types of Landmines
Slovenia took part in all of the preparatory meetings for the adoption of a treaty banning anti-personnel landmines, endorsed the Final Declaration of the Brussels Conference on Anti-personnel Landmines in June 1997 and was a full participant in the Oslo negotiations in September 1997. It also voted in favour of the UN General Assembly resolutions in support of a ban on anti-personnel landmines in 1996, 1997 and 1998.
With a view to ensuring the effective national implementation of the 1997 Ottawa Convention on Anti-Personnel Mines, Slovenia enacted two administrative measures in 1998 and 1999 concerning in particular the destruction of anti-personnel mines.
