Diana, Princess Of Wales: 'A Modern Tragedy And Its Consequences' (3)

There are said to be around 110 million mines lurking somewhere in the world - and over
a third of them are to be found in Africa! Angola is probably more heavily mined than
anywhere else, because the war went on for such a long time, and it invaded so much of
the country. So that country is going to be infested with mines, and will suffer many more
victims. And this brings me to one of the main conclusions I reached after this
experience.
Even if the world decided tomorrow to ban these weapons, this terrible legacy of mines
already in the earth would continue to plague the poor nations of the Globe. "The evil
that men do, lives after them."
And so, it seems to me, there rests a certain obligation upon the rest of us.
One of my objectives in visiting Angola was to forward the cause of those, like the Red
Cross, striving in the name of humanity to secure an international ban on these weapons.
Since them, we are glad to see, some real progress has been made. There are signs of a
change of heart - at least in some parts of the world. For that we should be cautiously
grateful. If an international ban on mines can be secured it means, looking far ahead, that
the world may be a safer place for this generation's grandchildren.
But for this generation in much of the developing world, there will be no relief, no
relaxation The toll of deaths and injuries caused by mines already there, will continue.
This tracing and lifting of mines, as I saw in Angola, is a desperately slow business. So in
my mind a central question remains. Should we not do more to quicken the de-miners'
work, to help the injured back to some sort of life, to further our own contribution to aid
and development?
The country is enriched by the work done by its overseas agencies and non-
governmental organizations who work to help people in Africa and Asia to improve the
quality of their lives. Yet mines cast a constant shadow over so much of this work.
Resettlement of refugees is made more hazardous. Good land is put out of bounds.
Recovery from war is delayed. Aid workers themselves are put at risk. I would like to see
more done for those living in this "no man's land" which lies between the wrongs of
yesterday and the urgent needs of today.
I think we owe it. I also think it would be of benefit to us, as well as to them. The more
expeditiously we can end this plague on earth caused by the landmine, the more readily
can we set about the constructive tasks to which so many give their hand in the cause of
humanity.
