Will the notion of "humanitarian intervention" be able to

stop the massacre in Myanmar?

All jus cogens, the fundamental principles of international law,

including the prohibition of genocide and torture, supersede the
norms in any international document. The European Parliament

(1944) and then the UN (1965 Rhodesia resolution) developed the con-
cept of humanitarian intervention and it is the international commu-
nity that must enforce this concept.

For example, in the 1990s, the security council designed propo-
sals to stop the slaughter of Muslims during the war in Kosovo. Rus-
sia and China vetoed the proposals but NATO went into action any-

way under the scope of a humanitarian intervention and put an end
to that evil despite the absence of a UN security council decision.

The tragedy in Myanmar can only be ended by the international
community.

If ordinary measures fail to produce results, then extraordinary
means such as a humanitarian intervention must be employed in the
name of humanity to put an end to the genocide in Myanmar.

The legal infrastructure for such an intervention is in place and

so is the indignation of the international public.

The only thing that remains to be done is to summon an emer-
gency session at the UN general assembly and adopt a resolution.

Countries can then take the requisite steps in the light of that

recommendation.
