Committee Introduction

In this session of BoğaziçiMUN, the United Nations Security Council delegates will confront one of the most enduring dilemma in international relations: the legitimacy and necessities of intervention, often framed under the doctrine of Responsibility to Protect (R2P). As humanitarian crises become imminent and geopolitical paralysis deepens, this emergency session calls upon delegates to question core tensions between state sovereignty and moral obligation during times of conflict. Set against a backdrop shaped by historical failures, selective enforcement, and shifting power dynamics, the committee decides whether intervention today, and in all is a genuine act of justice, or a disguise for unregulated and politicized power.
