<p>The British Government’s global network of embassies, strong international partnerships,
and early warning mechanisms give the UK significant insight into emerging threats.
The UK remains committed to the Responsibility to Protect and seeks to respond to
developing threats of atrocity crimes or genocide including through prevention projects,
sanctions regimes or support for justice systems. Our seat on the UN Security Council
also means we swiftly engage where a threat of such crimes emerges. Where prevention
has failed, it is the international community's responsibility to take collective
action, through diplomatic, humanitarian and other means. Where necessary, the UN
Security Council should be ready to authorise coercive measures under Chapter VII
of the UN Charter.</p>
