Keep it in Geneva (CCW-ONLY), since 2025-10-15, interpreted (INFERRED)

At the UN First Committee in October 2025, Montenegro restated firm support for the Geneva weapons convention, the CCW, and praised the work of its expert group on lethal autonomous weapons. It did not say what that work should produce. On this site's scale that is support for the Geneva process with the outcome left unstated.

Montenegro supports the CCW and commends the work of its expert group on LAWS.

We also commend the ongoing work of the Group of Governmental Experts on Emerging Technologies in the Area of LAWS.
