Global campaign yields global results: This map shows which states have

submitted their views on an Arms Trade Treaty to the UN Secretary-General

94 governments have responded to the UN Secretary-General's call for states' views on an Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). Leading up to the 20 June deadline for submissions, IANSA members around the world intensified their campaigning efforts to ensure maximum participation by governments in the UN process. These efforts have been rewarded: the rate of government responses is far higher than usual for UN consultations and the majority of submissions support the need to take into account impacts on human rights and humanitarian law when approving arms transfers.

Though the official deadline has passed, governments can still send their views on an ATT to the UN; these will be issued as addenda to the main consultation document. Control Arms believes 94 submissions have been made so far and 48 of these are published on the Control Arms website.
