Keeping the Peace, the UN Mission The United Nations has worked to maintain peace in various countries since its creation in 1948. The duty to provide peace is detailed in the United Nations Charter . Under the Charter its purpose is to: To maintain international peace and security, and to that end: to take effective collective measures for the prevention and removal of threats to the peace, and for the suppression of acts of aggression or other breaches of the peace, and to bring about by peaceful means, and in conformity with the principles of justice and international law, adjustment or settlement of international disputes or situations which might lead to a breach of the peace. (The Blue Helmet, 1990 United Nations pg.3) The Charter establishes a Department of Peace Keeping under the control of the United Nation Security Council which is handed to the council through Chapters VI and VII of the Charter. Chapter VI impowers the Security Council to step in and settle disputes, or aide in the settlement of these disputes. Under this chapter it is the councils duty to step in when the disputes start to threaten the maintaince of international peace and security. The United Nation forces that enter these areas are being sent to observe, monitor, supervise, or verify cease-fire and related agreements. the forces work to prevent the conflicts from futher outbreaks and to assure that settlements are permanent. the rules of engagement allow the troops to fire only is self-defense. William Durch saw how the United Nation peace-keepers use force is:

Participating in the UN Peace-Keeping Operations ¡¡¡¡As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, China has consistently engaged in efforts to maintain international peace and security. It cherishes and supports the role of the United Nations in keeping international peace and security under the guidance of the principles of the Charter of the United Nations. In order to help UN peace-keeping operations achieve success and develop in a healthy way, China holds that the following guiding principles should be stipulated and followed: ¡¡¡¡ The aims and principles of the Charter of the United Nations must be adhered to, especially the principles of respecting the sovereignty of all countries and non-interference in other countries' internal affairs. ¡¡¡¡ Disputes must be settled using peaceful means, such as mediation, good office and negotiation. Compulsory means should not be adopted indiscreetly, nor should military means be resorted to even for humanitarian ends.

Siekmann Review(s) A reference work such as this one is most valuable in putting together the essential documents relating to peace-keeping efforts, both within and outside the United Nations' framework. To be successful, a peace-keeping operation requires not only the co-operation of the parties to the conflict but also a wide and solid degree of international support. Such support can only be based on a full knowledge of the complexity, both political and practical, of international peace-keeping efforts. This book will, I believe, make an important contribution to the understanding of this important subject. Brian E. Urquhart, Under-Secretary-General for Special Political Affairs, United Nations

One of the stipulations of Alfred Nobel for the ideal recipients is that they should have done the most or the best work for the "abolition or reduction of standing armies". But the award needs to be seen in light of world events at that time It reinforces the universally accepted idea that the United Nations peacekeeping forces operate in the spirit of the Nobel Prize, that they exist to prevent hostilities, and to pave the way for peaceful solutions to emerge in conflict areas by the use of negotiation and persuasion instead of violence. The cold war between the Soviet Union and the United States and the resultant nuclear arms race were realities the world faced in the decades following the Second World War, causing global insecurity and fear of catastrophic annihilation. In this insecure climate, the new technique of peace-keeping came about as an alternative to war and conflict. A "practical reassessment of the realities of international peace and security has...emerged. Sixteen peacekeeping operations and countless good offices missions by successive Secretaries-General have been the backbone of this effort", said then Secretary-General Javier Perez de Cuellar in his Nobel Lecture, calling the peacekeeping operation "the United Nations' most successful renewal"

UNITED NATIONS TRUCE SUPERVISION ORGANIZATION HEADQUARTERS: Government House, Jerusalem DURATION: June 1948 to present CURRENT STRENGTH: 217 military observers FATALITIES: 28 OFFICER-IN-CHARGE: Colonel Joseph Bujold (Canada) BACKGROUND From its early days, the United Nations has been concerned with the Arab-Israeli conflict in the Middle East. Since 1948, there have been five full-fledged wars directly connected with the conflict, and five United Nations peace-keeping operations have been established in the region. Of these, three are still deployed. The Arab-Israeli conflict has its origins in the problem of Palestine, which was brought before the United Nations early in 1947. At the time, Palestine was a Territory administered by the United Kingdom under a Mandate from the League of Nations, with a population of about 2 million, two thirds of whom were Arabs and one third, Jews. In November 1947, the General Assembly endorsed a plan for the partition of the Territory, providing for the creation of an Arab State and a Jewish State, with Jerusalem to be placed under international status. The plan was not accepted by the Palestinian Arabs and Arab States. On 14 May 1948, the United Kingdom relinquished its Mandate over Palestine and the State of Israel was proclaimed. On the following day, the Palestinian Arabs, assisted by Arab States, opened hostilities against Israel. ESTABLISHMENT OF UNTSO On 29 May, the Security Council, in its resolution

October 1994 Vol. 23, no. 2 Peacekeeping: Issues for the United Nations and the United States UN Secretary General Boutros Boutros-Ghali issued An Agenda for Peace in June 1992 which made recommendations for strengthen-ing the United Nations and redefining the organization in accordance with post-cold war political, military, and economic realities. That document stimulated much discussion and lively debate focusing on traditional UN peacekeeping activities. It also raised significant questions concerning evolving US policy toward peacekeeping issues. Basic reforms in the United Nation's internal structure, procedures, and sense of mission need to be reassessed as the organization approaches its fiftieth anniversary next year. At the same time, the United States must reexamine its attitude toward the UN, its relations with the major powers on the Security Council, its willingness to commit resources and troops to UN actions, and its consideration of the issue of peacekeeping in light of US national security interests and the conduct of US foreign policy. Emphasis in this bibliography is on materials published subsequent to the issuance of An Agenda for Peace . A key reference document for understanding current US peacekeeping policy is Presidential Decision Directive 25

20. United Nations Peacekeeping Forces - History Of Organization The united nations Peacekeeping forces are employed by the World Organizaton to maintain or reestablish peace in an extended tasks, such as keeping the parties to a conflict http://www.nobel.se/peace/laureates/1988/un-history.html

The United Nations Peacekeeping Forces are employed by the World Organizaton to maintain or re-establish peace in an area of armed conflict. The UN may engage in conflicts between states as well as in struggles within states. The UN acts as an impartial third party in order to prepare the ground for a settlement of the issues that have provoked armed conflict. If it proves impossible to achieve a peaceful settlement, the presence of UN forces may contribute to reducing the level of conflict. The UN Peacekeeping Forces may only be employed when both parties to a conflict accept their presence. Accordingly, they may also be used by the warring parties to avoid having a conflict escalate and, in the event, also to have a struggle called off. The Peacekeeping Forces are subordinate to the leadership of the United Nations . They are normally deployed as a consequence of a Security Council decision. However, on occasion, the initiative has been taken by the General Assembly. Operational control belongs to the Secretary-General and his secretariat. We distinguish between two kinds of peacekeeping operations - unarmed observer groups and lightly-armed military forces. The latter are only allowed to employ their weapons for self-defence. Altogether, 14 UN operations have been carried out. They are evenly divided between observer groups and military forces. The observer groups are concerned with gathering information for the UN about actual conditions prevailing in an area, e.g., as to whether both parties adhere to an armistice agreement. The military forces are entrusted with more extended tasks, such as keeping the parties to a conflict apart and maintaining order in an area.
