United Nations is a global organisation that was created in 1945. It was the second multipurpose international organisation formed in the 20th century that was global in terms of membership and scope. The first one was the League of Nations which was established in 1919.UN has its headquarters in New York and several regional offices in Nairobi, Geneva, and Vienna. The key roles that the organisation plays include upholding universal peace and security, sustaining positive relations among countries, and endorsing worldwide cooperation (Adriaenssens 53). UN sources its power from the five nations in permanent membership commonly known as the Axis powers, which include the United States, China, Britain, France, and Russia. One of the problems that the UN has helped solve is conflict. Over the years, the UN has actively been involved in conflict resolution activities by restoring peace among warring states. This is usually done in accordance with its goal of maintaining global peace and security. As such, the UN keeps the peace by strengthening respect for human rights and restoring country’s ability to maintain law among other efforts. Despite the historic achievements that the UN has made earlier, the organisation is in danger of being overshadowed by failure, criticism, and stagnation. Therefore, if the leadership does not initiate efforts to restore the organization it might collapse in the future.
