• The principal purpose of the United Nations is to conserve worldwide harmony and protection.

Answer 2

If you are talking about the 1990s, the U.N. was not able to help much. In Rwanda, it stood by as the ethnic cleansing ran wild and many died as a result. In Bosnia, many U,N. peacekeepers were either held hostage or shot by militias. It was the intervention of the French in Rwanda and Americans in Bosnia that turned things around.
