The Untouchables: Is the UN Security Council Bound by International Law?

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The purpose of this article is to shed some light on the complex question of whether the Security Council is subject to certain legal limits stemming from the corpus of international law. We shall look at its significant powers established by the UN Charter to maintain international peace and security and take into account the special position of the UN Charter itself in the hierarchy of the norms of international law. While the decisions of the Security Council are binding upon the entire international community by virtue of Article 25 of the UN Charter, this UN organ should be, given such tremendous responsibility and authority, restrained in its actions by (at least some) norms of international law. We shall try to establish whether this is the case, and which sources of international law (treaties and/or customary law) might possibly provide for such limits. And even if (arguably) the Security Council might not be bound by international law in its entirety, it should at least adhere to strict boundaries of ius cogens (or peremptory norms of international law), as was clearly stated in the most recent Report by the International Law Commission from 2019.
