"The world was treated to a grotesque spectacle this week. Russia, the current
president of the UN Security Council, launched an invasion of Ukraine while the
Security Council was holding an urgent meeting to try to resolve the crisis.

This has many people asking whether there is any point to international law –
is it powerless to control the conduct of states?"
