Abstract

THE main goal of the United Nations (UN) is international peace, but it is being undermined by some permanent members of the Security Council, the main organ of the UN that is primarily responsible for maintaining it. This is done despite the pledge to save the next generation from the scourge of war, and the existence of a collective security system (hereinafter: the system) in the UN Charter, which is designed to deal with an international crisis such as the Ukraine crisis. The system is the post-World War II security order that guarantees the security of every country in the world in the face of war or aggression that any country may commit against any other country. It is described as 'the best approach to international peace and a valuable tool for crisis management in the world.' However, its success depends on the strong commitment of the UN Security Council and the "unanimity" of its five veto welding permanent members (P5) in favour of maintaining international peace and security that currently do not exist because of their divisions.
