"Responsibility to protect" debated at UN

Category: Security
Summary: At a General Assembly debate on Thursday on the 'responsibility to protect' (R2P), US political activist Noam Chomsky argued that it is linked to humanitarian intervention, which he says has been abused throughout history, while former Australian foreign minister Gareth Evans urged UN member states not to reopen negotiations on a principle adopted in 2005 to help solve the world's "most ugly" problems.
