The Responsibility to Protect doctrine was born out of the need to prevent the most horrific war crimes and atrocities. But its implementation in recent conflicts has arguably led to more harm than it has prevented.

Oksana is joined by Dr Jennifer Welsh, UN special adviser on the Responsibility to Protect, to discuss these issues.
