- W2009403863 abstract "This article analyses the 1997 report of the Belgian Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry into the events in Rwanda in April 1994. The weakness in the political and military concept of UNAMIR lay primarily in the watering‐down of the mandate by the Security Council to less than what would have been possible through the Arusha Accords, and the failure to anticipate a breakdown of these peace agreements. The inaction of UNAMIR during the prolonged struggle by the endangered peacekeepers is traced back to structural military problems in the mission and the reluctance to intervene forcefully, even to save peacekeepers, for fear that this could compromise UNAMIR's neutrality. Finally, there are strong arguments to indicate that UNAMIR did have a mandate to protect civilians. In practice, concerns for the security of peacekeepers rapidly override the need to protect civilians, even when threatened with massacres. There are major weaknesses, then, in the relationship between international legal instruments and the mandates of UN peacekeeping missions, in the relationship between peacekeeping and peace‐enforcement, and in the relationship between mandates and rules of engagement. The international community seems to favour low‐cost peacekeeping, an equation in which the political, financial and human costs of the peacekeeping operation are considered, but not the human cost for endangered populations. It appears that the objective of the Security Council may be to safeguard global peace and stability, but not to safeguard lives. Symptomatically, the most notable omission from the Belgian report is any reference to international efforts to provide protection." @default.
