Brazil has attempted to address the issue by crafting a resolution that would decouple the R2P mandate from the use of force – effectively eliminating the possibility that the doctrine could be applied.

巴西曾尝试为解决问题起草一项将保护责任授权与武力脱钩的决议——从而有效排除了西方利用这项原则的机率。而俄罗斯和中国都曾否决过谴责叙利亚政权的三项决议，同时俄国一直竭尽全力并成功延缓了对叙利亚的军事干预。从这个意义上讲，正式国际军事干预的合法性事实上由俄罗斯和中国控制。
