What the Law Says: Responsibilities of an
Occupying Power
Hague Convention of 1907: Art. 43. “The authority
of the legitimate power having in fact passed into
the hands of the occupant, the latter shall take all
the measures in his power to restore, and ensure,
as far as possible, public order and safety, while
respecting, unless absolutely prevented, the laws
in force in the country.”
