HUMANITARIAN INTERVENTION IN INTERNATIONAL LAW AS AN EXAMPLE OF EVENTS IN THE REPUBLIC OF GRENADA

Summary/Abstract: Following the events in the world and the whirlwind of war in the east of the old continent, the institute of humanitarian intervention has once again come into the spotlight. The paper is dedicated to this very complex concept in international law, which has been accompanied by many controversies throughout the past. The paper will deal with the basic concept of humanitarian intervention, its elements, and the method of implementation, as well as a comparison with aggression as an international crime. The central part of the paper will refer to the events that took place in the Republic of Grenada in 1983. Namely, in October of this year, it will be exactly four decades since the United States of America, under the pretext of humanitarian reasons, invaded Grenada, which was then condemned by almost the entire world. The events that preceded this humanitarian intervention will be considered, then the course of the operation itself, the reaction of the international community and the world, as well as the consequences that this operation had on international relations during the period of the then Cold War. The operation in Grenada, known under the code name Hitan Bes (Urgent rage), had far-reaching consequences for the world, which only contributed to intensifying tensions and sharpening the decades-long strained relations between the capitalist West and the communist East.
