What are the factors that lead armed actors to restrain from committing violations of international humanitarian law (IHL)? This question lies at the heart of the International Committee of the Red Cross’ “Roots of Restraint in War” study. On 28 April 2016, this team gathered at the Humanitarium in Geneva to present the study.
The LSE MEC, CUK’s Global Uncertainties Programme and the Centre for the Study of Democracy held Inside Syria: 18 Months On, a one-day conference on Syria on 20 September. Presentation begins at 38:03.
"Assistant Professor of Politics and International studies, Dr. Brian McQuinn, said the assassination of Qasem Soleimani was a major step by the U.S. and Iran's response with the two missiles hitting an Iraqi base housing American solders was well calculated.
McQuinn said what's going on between Iran and the U.S. is one of the most dangerous moments in the Middle East that we've seen in more than 30 years."
