Helping entire nations to save millions of dollars on conducting peacekeeping operations.                                            2.  Helping the international community to resolve the worst crisis of the late 20th century and playing a vital role in averting the third World War (Villani par.2).                                                                                                                    WEAKNESS OF THE UN                                                                                                                                                                          1.  It fails to ensure that nation remains independent and sovereign                                                                                            2.  Lack of its own army.                                                                                                                                                                   The main weakness of this is that soldiers from various countries are equipped and trained in their own way, according to their country standards, and when they embark on a joint operation, the divergence in training and orders results in collaboration difficulties

Group4 : Strength :  The maintenance of peace and security has always been a priority to the UN Member States. To achieve this objective, the organization was provided with an executive organism, which would have held the exclusive power to deal with those issues: the Security Council. Its action to promote peace and security helped the international community to solve the worst crisis of the past century and to avert the horrors of another World War. This was the case during the ‘60s and ‘70s when the political commitment of the Security Council helped to prevent the escalation of the US-USSR conflict. However, its weakness has been revealed recently. Firstly,  the new contemporary global challenges are jeopardizing its solidity and effectiveness.  A second weakness concerning the UN’s functioning is related to the lack of democratic mechanisms and accountability, which affects its structure. The composition of the Security Council still reflects the power distribution of 1945 as the five permanent members (United States, France, United Kingdom, China and Russia) hold more powers and prerogatives (e.g. the veto power) than the non-permanent ones. Since the power distribution has strongly changed during the last decades and values of equality. The third main deficiency of the UN system consists in the absence of a mechanism to empower the judgements of the International Court of Justice.

Group 1:

STRENGTHS OF THE UN

The UN is an international organization and affects more countries and people than do other large organizations.

It brings member states together to accomplish world peace, development and respect for human rights.

Many (but not all) member states are sensitive to UN opinion about their actions, so UN attention to an issue can lead to a positive result.

WEAKNESSES OF THE UN

The UN is only as effective as its member states allow. Current decision-making powers — especially that given to the five nations (China, France, Russia, United States, and United Kingdom) with permanent status and veto power in the Security Council — affects fairness, truth, and lawfulness.

The UN system suffers from democratic processes.

Many UN bodies did not live up to expectations.
