Having addressed the criticism of past failings and yet acknowledging the indispensability of the institution, how can the UN in the foreseeable future maintain peace in the world order?
“For 70 years The United Nations knew how to safeguard peace but not to broker peace. That's a big big difference and there is a misinterpretation. Not of the role but of the capabilities of the United Nations to be on the negotiating table of how to make peace between enemies.”, says Daniel Carmon, Former Ambassador of Israel to India
