SAINT VINCENT AND THE GRENADINES

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines signed the Mine Ban Treaty on 3 December 1997, but has not yet ratified. It is the only member of the Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) that has not ratified and the reason for the delay is not known. In November 2000, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines voted in favor of UN General Assembly Resolution 55/33V, calling for universalization of the Mine Ban Treaty. It has never produced, transferred, stockpiled or used antipersonnel mines and is not mine-affected.[1]
