I ranije je NATO umeo da preduzme samostalne oružane akcije protiv nekih zemalja, ali je napad na Saveznu Republiku Jugoslaviju bila prva velika kampanja protiv jedne suverene zemlje i članice Ujedinjenih nacija bez odobrenja Saveta bezbednosti. To je, kako su tvrdili ili obećavali čelnici Severoatlantske alijanse bio presedan, što znači, samo ovaj put, nikako pravilo. Ali onda su presedani počeli da se ređaju: Irak 2003, Libija 2011... da bi se danas formulacija o “flagrantnom kršenju” ili sumraku međunarodnog prava počela da se čuje sa raznih strana. Gost Stava dana istoričar Čedomir Antić, a uključimo će i diplomatu iz Podgorice Miodraga Lekića koji je te 1999.godine bio jugoslovenski ambassador u Italiji.
