Abstract

Some countries that have remained outside the Convention on Cluster Munitions have argued that joining the Convention would be too much of a financial burden, and that they would have difficulty meeting their legal obligations in a timely manner. Joining the Convention, however, will provide them with better access to financial, technical and material support to help them carry out their obligations in a timely and efficient manner.
