New Delhi: Many apprehensions are arising due to the increasing tension between Iran and Israel. The only thing being discussed around the world is whether the situation of war has arisen between the two countries. There are continuous reports that Iran can attack Israel at any time. There is already a war going on between Russia and Ukraine. On the other hand, the conflict between Israel and Palestine has not stopped yet. In such a situation, this new global conflict has increased everyone’s concern. Amidst the increasing tension in the Middle East, all eyes are on the United Nations. The question is, why is the United Nations (UN) not taking any steps to handle the worsening situation in Iran-Israel?
Why are questions being raised on UN?
Why is the UN, which makes boastful claims of international peace, keeping silent? Can’t he avert the situation of war by mediating between Iran and Israel? Has the UN become an organization in name only? These questions have arisen after many incidents that have come to light in recent times. The issue of conflict between Israel and the Philippines came up in the meeting of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) held a few days ago. The meeting was about 90 minutes long. During this, the UN appealed for peace from both the countries. However, it did not have much effect. Something similar was seen during the Russia-Ukraine war also. Even at that time, an appeal was made to both the countries to make peace. However, despite the words of the United Nations, the situation did not improve. The war between the two countries is still going on.
If war starts between Iran and Israel, what will be the impact on India, understand
UN appeared to fail on these occasions
India had also raised questions about the way the UN proved to be a failure in everything from the Ukraine war to the Gaza war. In the month of February this year, India had surrounded the United Nations Security Council regarding the Ukraine war, raising the demand for reforms. The United Nations i.e. UN was formed after the Second World War and there has been no improvement in it for many years. India stressed the need to reform the old structures to make multilateralism effective. During this, the question was raised as to why the United Nations Security Council has been ‘completely ineffective’ in resolving the Russia-Ukraine conflict that has been going on for two years? Why is it that the UN system, particularly its principal organ – the UN Security Council – is entrusted with the responsibility of maintaining international peace and security? Why has it been completely ineffective in resolving the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict?
Iran will not attack itself, then why did Netanyahu’s concern increase?
This is why the UN was formed
UN i.e. United Nations is an international organization. It was formed in 1945 after the Second World War, whose main function was to maintain peace in the world. Initially there were 50 countries in this international organization. The entire focus of this organization is to avoid war situations anywhere in the world. Along with this, this organization also takes steps to protect human rights in the world. This is the reason why till now 193 countries have joined it. One of the six major organs of the UN is the United Nations Security Council, i.e. UNSC. It ensures peace and security in the entire world. This is the most powerful part of this organization. However, the UN has been accused of acting like a puppet. Many such incidents came to light which led to such allegations.
Iran Attack on Israel: Iran initiated war, how to land its soldiers on Israeli ship?
Can the UNSC stop the war?
Can the United Nations Security Council avert or stop the situation of war? If we look at the powers, this may be possible, however, it has not been seen in the cases reported so far. Many such incidents took place where questions were raised on the attitude of the UNSC. When there was a war between Russia and Ukraine, the UNSC tried to intervene and appealed for peace. However, to no avail. Earlier, when there was a war between Iraq and Iran for many years, the UN was not able to take any significant steps. About 10 lakh people were killed in that war. The UN proved to be a failure even when there was a war between Vietnam and America.
This is the reason for the failure of UNSC!
America, Russia, China, France and Britain are 5 permanent members of the Security Council of the United Nations. These countries have got veto power. Through this, these countries can stop any case. It is believed that because of this veto power, the UN often lags behind in taking necessary steps regarding security and peace. Experts also say that until the system of veto power is abolished, the UNSC will not be able to work independently.
