Check out Citizens for Global Solutions CEO Don Kraus' remarks from "Responsibility to Protect and the Arab Spring"
Citizens for Global Solutions CEO Don Kraus presented remarks yesterday at American University's Washington College of Law for a discussion on "Responsibility to Protect and the Arab Spring"
Kraus disagreed with critics who think that the international response in Libya has hurt the Responsibility to Protect concept. On the contrary, he believed that Libya solidified the principle as a norm in international affairs.
He also noted that the global response to Libya was made at "lightening speed", taking a matter of weeks compared to recent other humanitarian disasters, such as the conflict in the Congo, which took three years for the international community to respond.
