from Part III - State and Institutional Policies on the Protection of Civilians
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 11 August 2022
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) Policy for the Protection of Civilians was adopted in 2016. In 2021, NATO further adopted the ‘Protection of Civilians Allied Command Operations Handbook’, an additional document aimed at advancing the PoC agenda within the Organization. NATO’s aerial intervention in Libya was indirectly authorised by the UN Security Council under Resolution 1973 with the use of force specifically authorised to protect civilians. It remains the most controversial operation NATO has yet mounted – even NATO Member Germany had abstained from voting in favour of the resolution – and is considered to have politicised the notion of the protection of civilians.
