- Several countries, including Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland, have withdrawn from the Anti-Personnel Mine Ban Convention (Ottawa Treaty) over the past year.
- Poland's Prime Minister Donald Tusk announced plans to mine borders within 48 hours of a threat.
- Ukraine has suspended its obligations under the Treaty, citing defense needs against Russian aggression.
- The Ottawa Treaty, signed by 161 countries, prohibits production and use of anti-personnel mines due to their indiscriminate nature.
- Recent withdrawals reflect a trend towards military deregulation and increased private-sector involvement in landmine technology.
A sustained trend towards military deregulation and regional conflicts is likely to drive increased defense spending, although diplomatic pressures could pose risks. The potential for renewed treaty negotiations may limit procurement increases.
