    The problem isn’t the known minefields. Those are fine, you can put a big fucking fence around it and place a sign.

    The danger is all the non-marked minefields. All the random mines placed by small units for tactical reasons, all the stuff that wasn’t recorded anywhere. The fields Ukraine place in Ukraine aren’t the problem, they know where those are. The ones Russia places are a problem, because (judging by the fact that russians still occasionally run into their own mines) they don’t even know where they are.

      The Problem with known minefields is,that if enough time passes, without the fields getting cleared, people might forget about it and then you have one hell of a problem.
