radar.am The UN and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have called on countries to adopt international rules that would limit or prohibit the use of autonomous weapon systems ("killer robots"), noting that the risks associated with them continue to grow.
The joint statement mentions that such systems are no longer a technology of the future; their development is already actively underway, while international legal regulations are not keeping pace with technological advancements. The UN and the Red Cross express hope that the negotiations scheduled for November in Geneva will be an important step towards the adoption of binding international rules regarding the use of autonomous weapons.
