Liechtenstein

Supports the negotiation of a legally binding instrument.

Liechtenstein is a state party to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons, but has not participated in any Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons meetings on autonomous weapons systems to date. However, Liechtenstein has spoken on autonomous weapons systems at the United Nations General Assembly.

Liechtenstein supports the negotiation of a legally binding instrument on autonomous weapons systems. At the UN General Assembly First Committee meeting in October 2021, Liechtenstein stated that it ‘supports a new regulatory framework for lethal autonomous weapons systems, in the form of a legally binding instrument to ensure a human component in the decision-making processes of such systems.’[1]Statement by Liechtenstein, UN General Assembly First Committee, 11 October 2021, https://reachingcriticalwill.org/images/documents/Disarmament-fora/1com/1com21/statements/11Oct_Liechtenstein.pdf Liechtenstein further stated that ‘such a legal instrument should place prohibitions on lethal autonomous weapons systems that cannot be used with meaningful human control across its entire life cycle, which can help to ensure compliance with applicable law, including international humanitarian law.’[2]Statement by Liechtenstein, UN General Assembly First Committee, 11 October 2021, https://reachingcriticalwill.org/images/documents/Disarmament-fora/1com/1com21/statements/11Oct_Liechtenstein.pdf
