"Rogue state" (or sometimes "outlaw state") is a term applied by some international theorists to states that they consider threatening to the world's peace. These states meet certain criteria, such as being ruled by authoritarian or totalitarian governments that severely restrict human rights, sponsoring terrorism, or seeking to proliferate weapons of mass destruction.[15] The term is used most by the United States (although the US State Department officially stopped using the term in 2000);[1] in his speech at the United Nations (UN) in 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated this phrase.[16] However, it has been applied by other countries as well.[17]
