Support for Mine Action

In 2012, the Principality of Liechtenstein contributed CHF200,000 (US$213,288)[1] in mine action funding—the same amount as in 2010 and 2011—to UN Mine Action Service (UNMAS) and the ICRC. Two contributions totalling CHF150,000 ($159,966) went to the ICRC, and one contribution of CHF50,000 ($53,322) went to UNMAS. None of Liechtenstein’s contributions in 2012 were earmarked for a specific country or activity.[2]
