The US military intervention in Venezuela amounts to a manifest breach of the prohibition on the use of force under international law. Neither self-defence nor authorization by the UN Security Council can be invoked to justify the use of military force. The operation also clearly violates the principle of non-intervention, as it was explicitly aimed to remove a sitting head of State. Criminal allegations raised by the US government against Nicolás Maduro, including accusations related...

In August 2021, the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan. This followed two decades of US-led military intervention and occupation, repeatedly justified as a mission to liberate Afghan women from the Taliban during their first regime from 1996-2001. Since their return, the Taliban have enforced an institutionalised regime of systemic discrimination and exclusion of women, depriving them of fundamental rights and freedoms. This level of repression has triggered widespread concern and international mobilisation. Feminist advocates,...

It was simply the worst of times? It has been a jarring start to the year and this particular season of darkness has already brought its fair shair of foolishness and incredulity. All the more reason to seek out corners of wisdom and belief. Over the last two weeks, contributors have helped shed light on a range of issues. There have been developments at INTERPOL, UNESCO, and concerning the protection of persons in the event...

Matthew Erie (American Univ. - Law) & Ching-Fu Lin (National Tsing Hua Univ.) have published Inter-Asian Law (Cambridge Univ. Press 2025). Here's the abstract: What happens when Western law is no longer the default referent for legal modernity? This is a deceptively simple question, but its implications are significant for such fields as comparative law, international law, and law and development. Whereas much of comparative law is predicated on the idea that modern law flows...

Unlike most international organisations of its size, the International Criminal Police Organization-INTERPOL (“INTERPOL” or the “Organization”) does not enjoy privileges and immunities (“P&I”) by virtue of a founding treaty. Rather, INTERPOL has worked to find bilateral solutions for its P&I: it has entered into bilateral agreements and other formal arrangements with approximately 20 countries, including those in which INTERPOL has regional bureaus and offices, and temporary bilateral agreements with many other countries. It has done...

Introduction On 15 December 2025, the UN General Assembly decided to convene the United Nations Conference on the Protection of Persons in the Event of Disasters (PPED). In 2024, the General Assembly had decided to conclude a legally binding instrument on the topic. (This was discussed in detail here). However, the modalities and details of such a conference were deferred to the 80th session of the General Assembly. This year, the General Assembly decided that...

In this post, I want to provide a couple of thoughts on some aspects of the unlawful US attack on Venezuela on 3 January. Before doing so, however, I should simply say that I completely endorse the analyses of colleagues here on EJIL: Talk! and on Just Security. The illegality of the US military operation again Venezuela is so obvious, so manifest, and so egregious, that the issue is simply not open to reasonable disagreement....

Is Britain legally accountable for holding Palestine between the world wars? Does its implementation there of the Balfour Declaration open it, presently, to claim for reparation, under the law of state responsibility? Three distinct positions are seen. For scholars like James Crawford and Malcolm Shaw, the issue of reparation does not arise, for they consider that what Britain did in Palestine was authorized by the League of Nations. More recently, however, Ralph Wilde argues that...

Since the immobilization of Russian Central Bank (RCB) assets across multiple jurisdictions in response to Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, officials and commentators have debated the legal permissibility as well as the political and economic wisdom of using those assets to fund Ukraine’s defense and reconstruction. While the EU has agreed to issue a loan to Ukraine backed by the EU budget, the debate over the use of the RCB assets has not been resolved. As...

Early on Saturday morning, 3 January, the United States attacked Venezuela. Aerial strikes were carried out in Caracas, Miranda, La Guaira, and Aragua, alongside covert operations conducted by special forces on the ground – actions later described by President Donald Trump as ‘an assault like people have not seen since World War II’. From an operational standpoint, the attack appears to have been a complete success: US forces apprehended and extracted President Nicolás Maduro and...

While “[t]oday, Europe faces the perfect storm” that, in the words of the Secretary General, “threatens to undo the peace, stability and hard-won progress the Council of Europe has helped deliver across an entire continent over the past 75 years”, it appears that European States not only forgot that they adopted in 1950 the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR or “the Convention”) as the “moral compass” to guide them through similar dark times; they...
