Italy and the credibility problemidi

On the website of Le Monde in these hours are very informative interview. A release was Charles F. Dunbar, professor of International Relations at Boston College and a former U.S. diplomat. Referring to the Libyan crisis, Dunbar spoke of a textbook case of the right to intervene. We are indeed in the presence of a regime that slaughters its own people, then there are the extremes to by-pass the sovereignty of a nation-state.

Rather, the respondent points out, the real problem is to carefully choose the country that will guide the UN in military operations, identifying a socio-historical reasons for that is entitled to exercise this role. For example cites the precedent of civil war in East Timor, where the army was given command of operations in Australia.

For this reason, Dunbar concludes, the country most suitable to lead the UN military operations in Libya would be Italy. Would be. Because, as the respondent in the last bars specific reference to our country, "it would cause a big problem given the low credibility, at least, of its rulers." The nice thing is that maybe never even heard of La Russa.
