What are the successes of the United Nations as a Peacekeeping Agency?

  • Guys, can someone please tell me what are the successes of UN as a peacekeeping agency? I need it for a school project. Please give the URLs 'cause I need to write it in details.

  • Answer:

    Here is a list of their past actions--you'll have to judge for yourself which ones were a success. http://www.un.org/depts/dpko/dpko/pastops.shtml When rating the UN, you have to remember that it is an orgainzation that was kept intentionally weak. No nation wants to be controlled by the UN, so the UN was designed so that it would be difficult to take action--if one permanent member of the security council votes to take no action, no action will be taken. This makes it so that when the UN does decide to take action, it is often a year or two after the problem got really bad.

There are none. Most places they are guilty of robbery, murder and rape as bad as the bad guys they are supposed to defend against.

If the UN knew what the hell it was doing then the U.S. wouldn't feel obligated to butt-in to every situation the UN is supposed to handle.
