"The security issues that preoccupy the major powers these days – and will certainly be most in the minds of those attending the St Petersburg G8 Summit - involve a heady mix of international terrorism, nuclear proliferation, Islamist extremism, resurgent nationalism and, linking most of them, global energy security. Which doesn’t leave much room for addressing the great security problem that most worried us throughout the 1990s: what to do about genocide or other mass killing, or ethnic cleansing or other crimes against humanity, committed within the boundaries of a single state."
