Dr. Simon Adams, executive director of the Global Center for the Responsibility to Protect, was cited by the NY Times on May 11, 2016 in the article, “US Approves use of Force to Protect Civilians in Conflict”:

[Dr. Adams] “said 10 of the 16 U.N. peacekeeping missions, including 97 percent of the 105,000 troops and police currently deployed, have Security Council mandates to protect civilians.” “‘However, despite the presence of sizable peacekeeping operations the United Nations continues to struggle to protect civilians from mass atrocity crimes’ in the Central African Republic, Congo, Sudan and South Sudan, he said.”
