<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">A la fin du mois de mai dernier, l&#8217;administration Obama a publié un document intitulé &#8220;<strong>National Security Strategy</strong>. A la page 22, on y retrouve un intéressant encadré intitulé &#8220;<strong>Use of force&#8221;</strong>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">
<p style="text-align:justify;">Sans surprise, les principes qui y sont énoncés sont nettement moins radicaux en comparaison avec la &#8220;<strong>Doctrine Bush Septembre 2002&#8243;</strong>. Cependant, les Etats-Unis se réservent le droit d&#8217;agir, &#8220;si nécessaire&#8221;, unilatéralement, tout en affirmant adhérer aux normes juridiques régissant l&#8217;usage de la force.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Dans la nuit du 30 au 31 mai 2010, un commando de l&#8217;armée israélienne a pris par la force le contrôle d&#8217;une flotille internationale qui voguait à destination de Gaza dans le but officiel de contourner le blocus en y acheminant de l&#8217;aide humanitaire et civile. L&#8217;opération a fait une dizaine de morts, ainsi que de nombreux blessés. Le 1er juin, le Conseil de sécurité a condamné l&#8217;opération militaire et appelé à une enquête impartiale (<a href="http://www.un.org/News/Press/docs//2010/sc9940.doc.htm">SC/9940  </a>et <a href="http://igps.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/s_prst_2010_9.pdf">S/PRST/2010/9</a>). Cet épisode pose plusieurs questions juridiques intéressantes. Pour lancer le débat, on trouvera ci-après <a href="http://igps.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/israel-legal_aspects.doc">l&#8217;argumentation juridique officielle de l&#8217;Etat d&#8217;Israël</a>, ainsi que divers points de vue parus sur le net. Pour lire ces points de vue visitez la page  <a href="http://igps.wordpress.com/forum/lassaut-disrael-est-illegal-pour-le-droit-international">forum</a> de ce site. Toutes les réactions et commentaires sont les bienvenues dans ce forum, pourvu que l&#8217;on reste dans le cadre d&#8217;une analyse de droit international.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;">Le 17 mai 2010, dans l&#8217;arrêt rendu dans l&#8217;affaire Kononov c. Lettonie, la Cour européenne des droits de l&#8217;homme a considéré que la condamnation par les tribunaux lettons en 2004 d&#8217;un partisan rouge pour des crimes de guerre commis en 1944 ne constituait pas une violation du principe de la légalité des délits et des peines (art. 7 de la Conv. EDH). La Cour a trouvé dans le droit international de 1944 une base juridique suffisamment claire pour les crimes de guerre pour lesquels le requérant avait été condamné. A cette fin, elle a été amenée à analyser, notamment, une série des règles du droit international humanitaire. Suivent quelques remarques sur l&#8217;analyse entreprise par la Cour, qui semble avoir utilisé des lunettes de 2010 pour lire le DIH de 1944.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align:justify;"><strong>The ICJ Advisory Opinion on the Unilateral Declaration of Independence of Kosovo: Has International Law Something to Say About Secession?</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">The Interest Group on Peace and Security (IGPS) will be holding a workshop on The ICJ Advisory Opinion on the Unilateral Declaration of Independence of Kosovo on Thursday 2nd September 2010, in Cambridge, just before the opening of the 4th Biennial Conference of the European Society of International Law.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">On 17 February 2008 the provisional institutions of self-government of Kosovo proceeded to a unilateral declaration of independence. International reaction has been rather mixed. As of 19 May 2010, 69 States have formally recognized Kosovo as a new independent State, whereas the majority of UN Member States has not recognized Kosovo. On the legal ground, a dispute arose about interpretation of classical rules of international law (self-determination, territorial integrity, recognition, non-interference in domestic affairs, definition of a State) and of relevant norms adopted within the framework of the international administration of Kosovo put in place by the Security Council in 1999 (SC Res 1244 (1999)). On 8 October 2008, the General Assembly requested an Advisory Opinion from the Court on the &#8220;Accordance with International Law of the Unilateral Declaration of Independence by the Provisional Institutions of Self-Government of Kosovo&#8221;. The Court is now deliberating and will deliver its Advisory Opinion in the next few months.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">  </p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">This workshop of the IGPS will provide an opportunity to comment on this important opinion. Participants will be invited to discuss the impact of this Opinion and of this case to International Law and the relevance of contemporary international legal rules in dealing with secession. Participants to this workshop include many academics working in the fields of self-determination/international administration of territories:</p>
<p>Dr. Theodore Christakis, Professor, University of Grenoble<br />
Dr. Olivier Corten, Professor, Free University of Brussels<br />
Dr. Marcelo Kohen, Professor, Graduate Institute of International Studies<br />
Dr. Anne Peters, Professor, University of Basel<br />
Dr. Marc Weller, Reader, University of Cambridge<br />
Dr. Ralph Wilde, Reader, University College London</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p align="justify"><span>The IGPS initiates today a new discussion on “Kosovo and International Law” by posting three brief contributions sent by J. d’Aspremont, O. Corten and M. Kohen.<br />
</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span></span><span>In the first of these contributions, <a href="http://www.law.leiden.edu/organisation/publiclaw/publicinternationallaw/jean-daspremont.jsp">Dr. J. d’Aspremont</a>, lecturer in Public International Law at the University of Leiden, explains that international legal scholarship has been unable to provide policy-makers with a uniform position on the legal problems fuelled by the independence of Kosovo. He argues that the recognition of Kosovo following its declaration of independence does not constitute an international wrongful act and he discusses the practice that preceded or ensued the declaration of independence adopted by the government of Kosovo on 17 February 2008.</span></p>
<p align="justify"><span></span><span>In the second of these contributions, already published in the newspaper “Le Soir” on February 20, 2008, <a href="http://www.ulb.ac.be/droit/cdi/Site/Accueil/Accueil.html">Pr. O. Corten</a>, Professor of International Law at the Free University of Brussels, argues on the contrary that the “premature” recognition of Kosovo is a violation of International Law and discusses, among other things, the relevance of the UN Security Council Resolution 1244 (1999).</span></p>
<p align="justify">In the third contribution, already  published in Le temps (Geneva) on February 18, 2008, Pr. M. Kohen argues that the independance and the recognition are illegal, and suggests a &#8220;Hong Kong solution&#8221;.</p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman';"></span><span style="font-size:12pt;font-family:'Times New Roman';"> The Interest Group on Peace and Security welcomes reactions and comments by legal scholars.</span></p>

<p align="center"><b>(by T. Christakis) </b></p>
<p align="justify"><span><span style="color:black;">For the second time in a few days a State undertook an important cross-border military operation in order to attack rebels hiding on the other side of the frontier. After the February incursion of Turkish troops into northern Iraq to target PKK militants, Colombia undertook last Saturday (</span><span style="color:black;">March 1, 2008) a </span><span style="color:black;">cross-border raid inside Ecuador, which killed FARC&#8217;s number two commander Raul Reyes. You can find hereafter </span><span style="color:black;">some declarations and reactions concerning these two cases which can be interesting for International Lawyers and which could give some useful information concerning State practice and opinio juris in matters like self-defence, “hot pursuit” and the principle of respect of the territorial integrity of States.</span></span></p>
