    I wrote this on a lead-up article. Being against the use of landmines up until the point of “Well, it’s different now because we need them” is hypocritical.

      That may be hypocritical, but having hostile neighbour, that itself doesn’t respect any conventions (and Russians absolutely don’t mind anti-personnel landmines among other things such as cluster munitions and chemical warfare) is a good stimuli to rethink ones principles.
