Participation in the Ottawa Treaty
The list of parties to the Ottawa Treaty encompasses the states who have signed and ratified or acceded to the international agreement outlawing anti-personnel mines.
On 3 December 1997, the Ottawa Treaty (also known as the Mine Ban Treaty) was opened for signature. Canada, Ireland, and Mauritius became the first states to deposit the treaty that same day. The treaty came into force and closed for signature on 1 March 1999 with the deposit of ratification by 40 states. Since then, states that did not sign the treaty can now only accede to it.
A total of 195 states may become members of the Chemical Weapons Convention, including all 192 United Nations member states, the Cook Islands, Holy See and Niue. As of July 2008, 184 states have ratified or acceded to the treaty, most recently Palau on 19 November 2007.
