UK military action in Syria will be ‘legal’ without UNSC resolution – PM Cameron

‘British Prime Minister David Cameron said on Wednesday that “any action” his country might take in Syria is “legal” even without a UN Security Council resolution.

“It is always preferable in these circumstances to have the full backing of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) but I have to say what matters most of all is that any action we would take would… be legal,” Cameron said while speaking at the House of Commons. He added that such action “would help protect” the UK.

The prime minister has long been trying to get approval to extend UK military action to Syria, with London already involved in airstrikes against Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) terrorists in Iraq. Parliament rejected a vote to extend the bombing campaign to Syria in 2013.’
