#ResponsibilityToProtect - "If we had a culture and politics of permanent prevention much earlier, that would change everything. […] The problem is that very often when we raise the alert very early about the possibility of atrocity crimes, people do not take it seriously."

- Mo Bleeker (UN #R2P)

Thousands of Palestinians have been killed, famine is spreading, and the world still hasn’t acted.

In my latest Substack piece, I argue that the #ResponsibilitytoProtect (R2P) might be the last option left.

ICJ国際司法裁判所での南ア対イスラエル裁判、いわゆる #ジェノサイド裁判 でアラブ連盟の法廷代理人を務めた国際法のエキスパートが遂にガザ問題で「保護する責任」原則の適用を主張。ラルフ・ワイルド教授は各国には #保護する責任 の下で「パレスチナ人民の代表の同意の下、国連安保理や国連総会の承認なしに、パレスチナ人民を保護する目的で軍民の両方で『保護的プレゼンス』を派遣できる可能性がある」と明言。英日W字幕化した。

On the 20th anniversary of the #ResponsibilityToProtect, Germany warns: violence against civilians is rising sharply. #Prevention, #EarlyWarningSystems, and #Accountability must be strengthened. #R2P #AtrocityPrevention #HumanRights #VolkerTurk #InternationalLaw
20 years on, the Responsibility to Protect demands action, consistency & accountability more than ever. We must uphold the rules and principles of int'l law. Distinction, proportionality and precaution in the conduct of hostilities are non-negotiable.

The UN Office on #GenocidePrevention and the #ResponsibilityToProtect "has become increasingly marginalized. This raises questions about whether member States’ official endorsements of atrocity prevention reflect genuine commitment or are merely rhetorical posturing."

The UN Office on #GenocidePrevention and the #ResponsibilityToProtect has not been as central as it should be to these efforts, say Douglas Irvin-Erickson and @ernestoverdeja.bsky.social.

If countries are serious, they write, it's time for a reboot:

If the UN and Member States Are Serious About Preventing Atrocities, It’s Time to Reboot a Key Office
Member States claim to want peace. Addressing issues in the "Joint Office" would elevate atrocity prevention as a priority.
