June 12, 2001 Andorra: Landmine Monitor Report 2000 Andorra signed the Mine Ban Treaty on 3 December 1997, and deposited its instrument of ratification at the United Nations on 29 June 1998. According to Andorra's Ambassador to the UN, Juli Minoves, the treaty is a good and necessary instrument to completely ban antipersonnel mines in the near future, and he insists that it should be signed and ratified as soon as possible by those governments that have not yet done so.
