Abstract :
Libyan conflict, started in March 2011, has created massive chaos and human rights violations
perpetrated by its president, Muammar Khadafi. Regarding those chaos, the United Nations,
represented by the Security Council has taken actions concerning the protection of the civilians
through the Resolution of the Security Council number 1970 (2011). Proven that the resolution
has given no result regarding the cease- fire demanded by the international world, the Security
Council the collaborated with Arab League and African Union, estabilished the Resolution of the
Security Council number 1973 (2011) concerning the authorization from the world, represented
by the Security Council to conduct no- fly zone in Libya. The estabilishment of no- fly zone in
Libya became the first step of the humanitarian intervention in Libya. The intervention in Libya,
March 2011, has created public debate in all over the world, between pros and cons arguments
created by many people regarding the intervention. Intervention itself became problematic
whether intervention violated principle of souvereignty chrystalized in the article 2 (4) and 2 (7)
of the Charter of United Nations. Other problem would be whether the conduction of the
intervention would still in line with the values and the mandate of the Chapter VII from the
Charter of the United Nations. In here, the Researcher would try to match and analyse whether
the intervention was still in line or not with the mandate of the Chapter VII from the Charter of
the United nations using legal normative approach. Based on the research, Researcher found that
the humanitarian intervention in Libya conducted by NATO was indeed, in line with the
mandatory requirements from the Chapter VII of United Nations Charter. Regarding the
principle that existed, based on the comparison, Researcher found that principle of Responsibility
to Protect outweighted the principle of Souvereignty, therefore, humanitarian intervention in
Libya didn?t violate the souvereignty of Libyan Government.
