Thakur invented R2P along with Gareth Evans, president emeritus of the International Crisis Group, a Soros-funded “crises management” firm where Soros himself sits on the small board. ICG is one of the main proponents of the international R2P doctrine.

The ISG has longstanding ties to the opposition in Libya, Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria, and other countries that saw their leaders deposed only to be replaced by Islamists.
