Answer:

C. Although the UN took a more active role in recognizing the atrocities in Darfur, it had little impact in either case.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The united state's support to Rwanda in 1993, was established through the council of the national security council resolution and was meant for the end of the civil war, the mission lasted till 1996 march.
  • The UNAMIR played a major role in the preventing the genocide. This led to RPF to overthrow the government and thus became a major failure.
  • The UNAMID had a mission in 35 locations in five states of Darfur. The peacekeeping nations were confronted with the challenges of the security and transportation services operating in complex and hostile environments.
