Summary/Abstract: The respect for the law requires, from the participants to any law relationship, compliance with the spirit and letter of that law. Both of them have to be acknowledged, grasped and strictly applied by the subjects of relationships that law creates. In furtherance of this pledge, state hands over the intrinsic responsibility to its citizens, the potential subjects of International Humanitarian Law; eventually, there are individuals, either official authorities’ representatives or soldiers, that make decisions and carry them out, holding them accountable for their deeds. This endeavour is called implementation of the law and as far as International Humanitarian Law is concerned, it was thought as a series of concurrent and complementary measures and efforts to make civilians and the military personnel familiar with the rules of humanitarian law, to set the appropriate structures, administrative arrangements and personnel required for compliance with the law and to create conditions for prevention and punishment of International Humanitarian Law violations. This paper will address the likely options for military system in promoting the International Humanitarian Law through its specific means of training and education.
