These conditions serve as a basis for determining the legitimacy of UK's participation in the military intervention in Libya. The careful analysis of each of them proves that Britain acted in accordance with the R2P and the mandate that was entrusted to her by the international community. However, it was not true about few of her allies. Combined with Libya's uncertain future, the R2P must...
