Mallory Stewart, the U.S. Deputy Secretary for Arms Control, Deterrence, and Stabilization, is set to arrive in Morocco on Monday for a three-day visit to address a range of emerging security threats, according to the U.S. State Department.
During her visit to Rabat, Stewart will participate in the World Conference on the Role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Promoting the Implementation of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC).
She is scheduled to deliver the opening speech at this conference, which is co-sponsored by Morocco and the Technical Secretariat of the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).
The conference will build on the work of the OPCW’s Scientific Advisory Board and its engagement with independent scientific experts, the State Department noted.
Throughout the event, Stewart will update her newly established temporary working group on AI and discuss future initiatives of the OPCW’s governing bodies.
In addition to her conference duties, Stewart will engage in high-level discussions with Moroccan officials to tackle various emerging security threats. These talks will focus on deepening strategic partnerships, sharing mutual perspectives and expertise on regional risk reduction approaches, and exploring ways to enhance and strengthen multilateral disarmament and international security mechanisms.
Stewart will also meet with representatives from OPCW member states to reinforce the international norm against the use of chemical weapons, advocate for comprehensive legislation to implement the CWC, prioritize information resilience, and endorse the Political Declaration on the Responsible Military Use of Artificial Intelligence and Autonomy.
