SUBJECT:
Anti-Personnel Landmines (APL)
This Presidential Decision Directive establishes and directs the
implementation of U.S. policy on anti-personnel landmines (APL).
Background
This policy was developed in response to the growing threat posed
by the indiscriminate use of anti-personnel landmines. Thousands
of people each year are maimed or killed by these weapons, most
of them civilians.
Increasingly, APL pose a threat as well to
U.S. military forces and non-military personnel, where they are
engaged in peacekeeping operations. The policy
been
established pursuant to a Principals' level review, which
included a thorough study of U.S. military requirements conducted
by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, with the involvement of the
Services and the Combatant Commands. The policy s
forth a
concrete path to a global ban on APL, but ensures that as the
United States pursues this ban, essential U.S. military
requirements and commitments to our allies will b~ protected.

Elements
• The United states will aggressively pursue an international
agreement to ban the use, stockpiling, production and transfer
of antipersonnel landmines (APL} with a view to completing the
negotiation as soon as possible. The United states should
seek to initiate such negotiations as soon as feasible.
• The United states views the security situation on the Korean
Peninsula as a unique case and in the negotiation of this
agreement ,will protect our right to use APL there until
alternatives become available or the risk of aggression has
been removed.
• Effective immediately, the United States will unilaterally
undertake not to use and to place in inactive stockpile status
with intent to demilitarize by the end of 1999,
1 non-self
destructing APL not needed for (a} training personnel engaged
in demining and countermining operations, and (b} to defend
the United states and its allies fro~ armed aggression across
the Korean demilitarized zone.
• Between now and the time an international agreement takes
effect" the United States will reserve the option to use self
destructing/self-deactivating APL, subject to the restrictions
the United States has accepted in the Convention on
Conventional Weapons, in military hostilities to safeguard
American lives and hasten the end of fighting.
• The Secretary of Defense is directed to undertake a program of
research, procurement and other measures needed to eliminate
the requirement for these exceptions and to permit both the
United States and its allies to end reliance on APL as soon as
possible.
• Beginning in 1999, the Chairman of the Joint Chie
of st f
will submit an annual report to the Secretary of Defense and
the President outlining his assessment of whether there
remains a military requirement for the exceptions noteq above.
In consultation with the Secretary of Defense, the Chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff, will include in his report the
status of the search for alternatives to APL, as defined
immediately above.
• The Department of Defense will undertake a sUbstantial program
to develop improved mine detection and clearing technology and
