is a war that was a response to a humanitarian emergency, not a geopolitical power play.

As David Clark, a key author of the UK's so-called 'ethical foreign policy', has argued, the Iraq war had sown doubt about the legitimacy and efficacy of Western military power: 'In departing from the principle of non-intervention and lacking a UN mandate, Kosovo is often regarded as the original sin that made Iraq possible. Even Russia's invasion and recognition of Abkhazia and South Ossetia have been characterised as blowback from Kosovo's declaration of independence a few months before. Comparisons of this kind confuse more than they clarify. The war in Kosovo was a response to a humanitarian emergency, not a geopolitical power play.'
