The United Nations has done a commendable job in the field of peace-keeping operations. It has been instrumental in solving many problems related to the world peace and security. It has succeeded in solving many issues related to peace-keeping operations such as the Afghanistan issue, Iran-Iraq cease-fire, Namibian problem, the issues of Western Sahara and Cyprus and resolved the spreading of many local wars like Korea, Indonesia, Kashmir and the Palestine. The Security Council and the General Assembly praised it in this regard. But its failure in Somalia, Rwanda and particularly Bosnia stressed the need of strengthening the peace-keeping operations. The need of permanent UN forces, the Rapid Reaction Forces and the need of more finances for it is the need of the time.
