The Convention on Cluster Munitions became international law on August 1, 2010. The Convention bans use, production, transfer, sale and stockpiling of cluster munitions. It also obligates countries which have joined it to clear contaminated land, destroy their stockpiles and to provide assistance to those who have been victims of this inhumane and indiscriminate weapon. This treaty was an important achievement and is making a big difference to the lives of thousands of people around the world. It is well worth celebrating today and re-committing ourselves to ensuring no one ever uses this weapon again and to help restore the rights and livelihoods of the victims.
