The Legal Basis for Foreign Intervention upon Invitation: Recent Interventions

This study aims to identify the principles related to the legitimacy of foreign intervention upon invitation, particularly recent interventions that have drawn the attention of states seeking to justify their military actions in foreign territories. This type of intervention has raised numerous questions regarding the legal principles governing its conditions, which vary between strictness and leniency. Notably, these interventions have often deviated from Security Council resolutions concerning the maintenance of international peace and security, despite the necessity of a strong connection to the Council's work. The study is divided into two main sections: the first examines the legitimacy of foreign intervention upon invitation in internal conflicts, while the second explores the applicability of general principles to this form of intervention.
