US reverses stance on small arms treaty
Posted by David Hardy · 6 June 2010 05:38 PM
Story here. The US did say that any vote must be by consensus, to which treaty proponents are objecting.
UPDATE: Prob is old news. I've just fought off one hell of an infection, am not too clear at noticing things in this exhausted state.

From the iansa.org website, http://www.iansa.org/un/bms2010.htm:
"Governments will meet at the United Nations in New York from 14-18 June 2010 to discuss progress on implementing the 2001 Programme of Action (PoA) on Small Arms.
The deadline to apply for accreditation was 5 April 2010. Please see the UNODA aide-memoire for more information."
Isn't this old news? The article looks to be dated Wed Oct 14, 2009 11:56pm EDT.
