A locally compact group \(G\) is \textit{weakly amenable} if there is a net of compactly supported Herz-Schur multipliers on \(G\) that is uniformly bounded with respect to the Herz--Schur norm and converges to 1 uniformly on compact subsets of \(G\). This notion was introduced by \textit{M. Cowling} and \textit{U. Haagerup} [Invent. Math. 96, No. 3, 507--549 (1989; Zbl 0681.43012)]. The paper under review gives a complete characterization of simply connected Lie groups that are weakly amenable.
