Paragraph 1 – point f
Paragraph 1 – point f
(f) to work towards achieving consensus on and developing a more operational approach towards the doctrine of Responsibility to Protect (RtoP); whilst stressing its importance in preventing and peacefully mediating conflicts, to encourage the implementation of RtoP, inter alia, by strengthening the role of regional organisations such as the African Union (AU), by strengthening early-warning mechanisms within the UN and the UN's mediation capacities like the Mediation Support Unit (MSU) of the Department of Peacekeeping Operations (DPKO), and by better defining the roles of relevant UN bodies; welcomes UNSC Resolution S/2011/95 1970(2011)of 26 February 2011, in which called on the Government of Libya to meet its responsibility to protect its population, the very first time that the RtoP doctrine has been mentioned in a formal UNSC statement in reference to an ongoing crisis, for the very first time all permanent members of the Security Council agreed to call on the International Criminal Court to open an inquiry against an acting government on the basis of alleged crimes against humanity and in the name of the RtoP doctrine in reference to an ongoing crisis; equally welcomes UNSC Resolution 1973(2011) in which the Security Council authorised the protection of the population and a no-fly zone over Libya under the concept of RtoP; regrets however that still far too many lives have been destroyed in this less then perfect process; strongly believes that the mechanisms for the application of the RtoP have to be further refined; emphasizes that the recourse to military force must clearly be the very last resort, and that the formal procedures and mediation efforts to be applied should be strenghtened in the future,
