At the UN, Cuba stated that the 'Responsibility to Protect' generates deep concern within an international system characterised by power imbalances
During the plenary session of the United Nations General Assembly on item 132: "The responsibility to protect and the prevention of genocide, war crimes, ethnic cleansing and crimes against humanity", the Chargé d'Affaires, a.i. of Cuba to the UN, Ambassador Yuri Ariel Gala López, stated that it is a serious conceptual error to treat the "Responsibility to Protect" as a principle of International Law, since it lacks recognized legal status.
