[00:00:00]So, so my question then is is why is is why is the Geneva Convention broken? Why why aren't the laws working anymore?

[00:00:07]What's changed?

[00:00:09]>> First of all, we count much [clears throat] higher number of conflicts today than 15 years ago, than 30 years ago. And this number is still on the rise.

[00:00:20]And new technologies with a lot of potential to harm civilians.

[00:00:26]But more importantly, the way wars are conducted today exhibit a permissiveness in the interpretation of the rules of war.

[00:00:35]You often hear there are no rules. We have to win this war. But fact is there's never a lawless space. All states have a obligations to comply with the law, as do all state non-state armed groups.
