In our view, conducting legal weapon reviews under Article 36 of [AP I] serves as an important tool to assure that use and development of [AWS] is in compliance with IHL rules and regulations. Considering the multidimensional and intricate nature of LAWS, the processes of reviewing autonomous systems would be a challenging and complex issue. Given the fact that weapon review processes are national internal procedures, our delegation sees great value in practical measures such as information exchange, sharing best practices and public access to Article 36 procedures and results to enhance transparency and confidence building among State parties.
