NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen has stated that NATO could intervene without UN Security Council’s decision in the future. He said that he would not rule out a possibility that NATO would have to intervene without the appropriate resolution of the UN Security Council in some cases. “NATO could intervene without UN SC decision” Rasmussen told Danish daily Politiken that “there can be situations when the international community has legal bases to intervene with support of the UN Charter, without a resolution of the Security Council”. “That would not be an ideal situation but we have seen it in Kosovo. The international community intervened there and I believe, looking at it in light of history, that everybody agrees that it was a right thing to do,” the NATO secretary general stressed. He added that he did not want anyone to misunderstand him and that he “does not advocate such type of interventions since it is the best to have support of the Security Council resolution”. “But on the other hand, that does not mean that the international community will just sit and watch passively as population is being massacred, as human rights are brutally violated or as even genocide is being conducted,” he told the Copenhagen-based daily. Rasmussen pointed out that the operation in Libya, which will end on October 31, “was a huge success, with 25,000 flights and 10,000 strikes and without confirmed victims caused by NATO”. (Tanjug)
