RESOLUTIONS OF UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL AND MILITARY OCCUPATION OF IRAQ IN 2003

Summary/Abstract: In this article specifically elaborated in detail is the case of occupation of Iraq by the coalition forces of U.S. and U.K. Among other things, the relationship between relevant resolutions of UN Security Council and rights of occupation i.e, relationship of resolutions in accordance with standards jus cogens was discussed.As is well known standards jus cogens mean universally binding notrms of international law from which no derogation is permitted. The UN Charter explicity provides that Security Council has the authority to deviate from the norms of international humanitarian law. All resolutions of Security Council made in connection with the occupation of Iraq affirm the view that International Humanitarian Law and the Law on Occupation are valid without exception. They also do not contain explicit departure from current Law on Military Occupation. They only confirmed and justified the applicability of the basis international agreements in the case of Iraq. In any case, the resolutions must be in accordance with the law regime of military occupation.
