3.8: Genocide, Human Rights Violations & Humanitarian Emergencies

Consider requests from the UN to take appropriate action in the event of genocide, other massive violations of human rights, or humanitarian emergency.

Other Information:

Coordination between the UN and NATO can prove crucial in the event of genocide, other massive violations of human rights, or humanitarian emergency. The Strategic Concept should make clear that NATO is willing to consider requests from the UN to take appropriate action in such circumstances (possibly in support of other regional organisations), provided the NAC agrees to the mission and resources are available to carry it out.
