My piece in City AM 8th March on the relevance of international law to address the conflict in Ukraine, and the risks we take when we undermine it, at home and abroad:
We have weakened the very systems of law we need to restore peace in Ukraine.

We need to respect international law every day to be sure it is there when we need it....
International law can provide the bedrock for global peace and security. But it can only do that if we give it the respect it deserves, at home and abroad, every day, not just when we really need it.

Even if, thus far, the systems available to us have not been able to face down or halt Russian aggression, the continued importance we place on international law is important, writes CIGI Senior Fellow @susie_alegre for @CityAM: https://t.co/43cljXmbNH
