Summary/Abstract: The practice of the United Nations bodies is very important not only for understanding of contemporary operation of this international organization but also for understanding of contemporary international relations. The author points at execution of powers of the UN Security Council, pursuant to Chapter VII of the UN Charter, in the Libyan case. UN Security Council Resolutions 1970 and 1973 relative to Libya situation represent consistent continuation in execution of powers of the UN Security Council pursuant to Chapter VII as it was the case in the whole post Cold-War era. Nevertheless, it does not mean that these resolutions do not trigger certain controversial questions, such as limitation of these powers of the UN Security Council and potential disturbance of institutional balance within the United Nations
