Abstract

In the twentieth century, with the formation of human groups under the name of insurgent and militant groups, these groups have been bound by many rules of international law on the one hand, and on the other hand, due to the increasing formation of these groups in the world arena, the need to pay attention to non-governmental actors. It attracts attention under the heading of insurgents and militants. In the current international context in which many governments pursue their goals in pursuit of their goals and limit their direct intervention, this has increased their impact on global equations. Preventing organized crime and militant groups from gaining access to weapons significantly reduces their ability to commit international crimes and is itself a form of situational prevention of organized crime and terrorism. The 2013 Arms Trade Treaty is the most comprehensive arms trade document that aims to regulate the conventional arms trade and the role and responsibility of governments. And the commission of international crimes has imposed obligations on its members, including the commitment of governments to cooperate in the implementation of these obligations. The system of responsibility also contains important rules regarding the assistance to governments that violate international law, for which the possibility of raising the issue of international responsibility has been considered.
