Wants a treaty with bans (LBI-BAN), since 2025-06-23, interpreted (INFERRED)

In its 2025 submission to the UN Secretary-General on military uses of AI, Jordan said it rejects any system able to make lethal decisions without direct human involvement. The same paper calls for a binding international agreement on military AI. Read together, that points to a treaty with bans. The paper is in Arabic only, so this reading is a description. Jordan voted Yes on all three UN resolutions.

Jordan rejects autonomous combat systems that make lethal decisions without direct human involvement.

Arabic-only submission under resolution 79/239. One point is headed as rejecting fully autonomous combat systems: it affirms Jordan's position rejecting the use of any systems able to take lethal decisions without direct human intervention, because of serious legal and humanitarian risks. Another point says military AI must rest on full human control over decisions to use force. UNGA Resolution 79/239: Submission by Jordan (Arabic), 2025-06-23 source

Jordan calls for a binding international convention on the use of AI in the military domain.

Same submission. Under strengthening international cooperation, Jordan calls for developing a binding international convention that regulates the use of artificial intelligence in the military domain, including transparency, exchange of expertise and capacity building between states.
