Wants a treaty with bans (LBI-BAN), since 2024-05-31, stated directly (EXPLICIT)

In its 2024 submission to the UN Secretary-General, Trinidad and Tobago called for a legally binding treaty that bans uncontrollable autonomous weapons and those designed to use force against people, and regulates the rest.

Trinidad and Tobago calls for negotiating a legally binding instrument that prohibits uncontrollable autonomous weapons.
