Answer:
When a dispute leads to fighting, the Council's first concern is to end it as soon as possible.On many occasions, the Council has issued ceasefire directives, which have helped to prevent major hostilities.It also deploys UN peacekeeping operations to reduce tensions in troubled areas, keep opposing forces apart, and create conditions for sustainable peace after settlements have been reached. The Council may decide on enforcement measures, economic sanctions (such as trade embargoes) or collective military action.
