Tier AICRC / Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs — The Montreux Document on Pertinent International Legal Obligations and Good Practices for States Related to Operations of Private Military and Security Companies during Armed Conflict
Unknown · ICRC / Swiss FDFA (transmitted to UN General Assembly as A/63/467–S/2008/636)
tlte-cite:kms-icrc-swiss-2008Editorial gloss
The primary international legal framework document on PMSC obligations under IHL and IHRL. Demonstrates that while states have obligations to prevent PMSCs from violating IHL, no binding treaty existed at the time KMS operated, nor has one been adopted since. The UK's signature of the Montreux Document in 2008 without retrospective application illustrates the regulatory gap that allowed KMS principals to escape prosecution.
