UNITED NATIONS AND HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTION

RESEARCH WORK IN THE PROCESS OF PUBLICATION

The research sought to answer the following questions:
1. Is humanitarian Intervention legal under current International Law?
2. If no can it be legalized and under what parameters?
3. Should the only parameter be genocide and mass killing?
4. Should the intervening State or States obtain the authorization of the United Nations Security Council before undertaking humanitarian intervention?
5. Should the intervening State or States exhaust all peaceful remedies including resorting to International Criminal Court?
6. Does the principle of obligation erga omnes of human rights constitute a sufficient ground for humanitarian Intervention when there is mass killing and genocide?
7. Does the principle of obligation erga omnes require all States to be parties to the International Criminal Court even without their ratifying the Statute of the Court?
