Belize did not attend any Mine Ban Treaty-related meetings in 2002 or 2003. On 22 November 2002, it voted in favor of UN General Assembly Resolution 57/74, urging universalization and implementation of the treaty.

Belize submitted its initial Article 7 transparency report on 4 November 1999, covering calendar year 1999, but has not submitted any subsequent reports.

Belize has never used, produced, imported, or stockpiled antipersonnel landmines, including for training purposes, and is not mine-affected. ]]></textBox> <email><![CDATA[]]></email> </dist>
