China, Landmines
As of May 8, 2010, the country of China, on the issue of landmines, supports heavy restriction on the use of landmines
China is against the idea of the outright banning of landmines. China would like to “heavily restrict” the use of landmines. China believes that landmines should only be used as protection, not as a form of attack. China believes that landmines are necessary for the military. If countries are using landmines for protection then China believes that the country that planted the landmines should remove them immediately after the potential threat has been eliminated. China wants t help countries that have issues with landmines so they can dispose of them.
China believes that landmines are necessary for protection. If landmines were entirely banned then conflicts would become and remain very violent. The use of landmines protects people on the receiving side of an attack and it prevents attacks from escalating. Old landmines should be removed and landmines not being used for protection should be deactivated. China is ready to make plans, and help dispose of landmines in countries having problems with landmines not used for protection. North and South Korea are good examples of how the plan works to stop fighting.
