Failure of conservative treatments described above may lead to consideration of various therapeutic injections such as local anesthetics (e.g., lidocaine), Anti inflammatory drugs and or corticosteroids, botulinum toxin (BTX, BOTOX), or a combination of the three.

Countermeasures in respect of an internationally wrongful act

Working Group on Mines Other Than Anti Personnel Mines (MOTAPM)

(a) Issues related to the irresponsible use of MOTAPM,

Therefore, the measures to deal with MOTAPM should be different with those for APL.

Working Group on Mines Other Than Anti Personnel Mines

China believes that in the pre war period, minefields should be monitored and guarded effectively, but need no marking or fencing in the post war period, however, minefields should be marked and fenced immediately.

Taking into account the views of other parties on this issue, China is ready to demonstrate flexibility by making some amendment to the provisions on the first category of sensitive fuzes in the Coordinator's Paper, i.e., tilt rods do not appear to be a recommended method of activation, if it cannot be designed in such a way that an individual cannot, within reason, initiate the mine .

Section IV Active life of MOTAPM

The States should take all appropriate steps aimed at preventing the unauthorized access to or use of MOTAPM by any individual, group of persons or entity, not acting under the legal authority of a State, including inter alia

Thirdly, compared with APL, MOTAPM are bigger in size and easier to be found.

(b) Restrictions on the use of MOTAPM,

China hopes that the Coordinator on the MOTAPM issue will incorporate proposals in this package solution to his Paper, so as to facilitate further discussions on the issue in the GGE.

Some researchers have experimented with the use of tea tree oil, an antibacterial agent which also has anti inflammatory effects.

Illicit trafficking and the role of organized crime key sectors and countermeasures

Availability of the alternative methods and equipment for the humanitarian de mining, international acceptance.

It is therefore necessary to strictly restrict the use of MOTAPM in the above mentioned aspects for the effective solution to the humanitarian concerns caused by MOTAPM.

This will undermine the efforts to minimize the impact of MOTAPM on civilians and humanitarian organizations. Since the use of non detectable MOTAPM is allowed, their production and transfer will also continue.

Section V Practical Actions Limiting the Irresponsible Use of MOTAPM

However, according to statistics, the humanitarian concerns caused by MOTAPM are by no means comparable with those caused by Anti Personnel Landmines (APL).

and Fusing Standards

Section VI Fuze design and sensors of MOTAPM

(e) Countermeasures must cease immediately when the internationally wrongful act has ceased.

such humanitarian concerns as may exist in the international community, to which we belong, suggests the adoption of a new additional protocol on MOTAPM within the framework of the Convention, to read as follows

The Utrecht Regional Court declared the author's counter claim inadmissible.

(i) The absence of a requirement to record the location of all MOTAPM used.

The adoption of such a simple and specific additional protocol, similar in brevity and substance to Additional Protocol I on non detectable fragments, would guarantee for all the High Contracting Parties

Firstly, the concealment of the MOTAPM, as a major defensive weapon, has important military significance.

Cooperation and assistance in the legal implementation of the regulations and restrictions relating to MOTAPM.

To determine basic categories of fuzes and adopt Best Practices on fuze mechanisms so as to increase the discriminatory capacity of MOTAPM to the greatest extent and to prevent them from being actuated by the presence, proximity or contact of a person.

(iii) China is not in favor of the prohibition on the use of MOTAPM with tilt rods fuzes.

There are a number of regulations applicable to MOTAPM which are common to both instruments.

Such a provision would hinder acceptance of the MOTAPM instrument, and the CCW as a whole, in non international armed conflicts.

Second, prohibition on the use of persistent MOTAPM located outside a perimeter marked area.

There is no need to formulate new stipulations on anti handling devices for MOTAPM.

As most professional armed forces believe that their MOTAPM are intended to protect national territory and have corps to clear such mines, this could potentially remove large numbers of MOTAPM from the detectability obligation.
