Comment by Joshua Dorosin
U.S. State Dept. deputy legal adviser
We believe it is premature to enter into negotiations on a legally binding instrument, a political declaration, a code of conduct, or other similar instrument, and we cannot support a mandate to enter into such negotiations.AI Verified source (2018)

The quote is present verbatim at the cited source URL. The Arms Control Association page (an October 2018 article by Michael Klare, not by Dorosin) states: Joshua Dorosin, "deputy legal adviser at the State Department," "said at the experts group meeting Aug. 29" and then gives this exact sentence. That supports the quote’s authenticity and attribution to Joshua Dorosin as speaker. ([armscontrol.org](https://www.armscontrol.org/act/2018-10/news/us-russia-impede-steps-ban-killer-robots))

Verified: This is from Joshua Dorosin, U.S. State Department Deputy Legal Adviser, as cited in Arms Control Today's October 2018 article "U.S., Russia Impede Steps to Ban 'Killer Robots'" reporting on the August 2018 CCW Group of Governmental Experts meeting on LAWS. The URL was blocked by WebFetch, but web search directly confirms the quote and attribution to Dorosin. Year 2018 is correct - matches the GGE meeting context. The vote "against" on "Ban autonomous lethal weapons" aligns - Dorosin is the U.S. official rejecting negotiations toward a binding ban or even a non-binding political declaration.
