EU condemns US lifting of landmine ban
Brussels: The European Union on Tuesday strongly condemned the decision by US President Donald Trump to lift US restrictions on landmines.
“Their use anywhere, at any time and by any actor remains totally unacceptable to the European Union”, the EU’s diplomatic chief Josep Borrell said in a statement.
The EU rebuke followed Trump’s green light on Friday to a new generation of self-destructing landmines on the argument that they were safer. – AFP
