The four main aspects of United Nations:

1. The United Nations role towards world peace had many sides to it. Its organs work to prevent wars from happening. This is done by advising or encouraging countries to maintain friendliest relations without interfering in each other's affairs and to settle differences without using force. For this purpose the United Nations has passed several Declarations and Resolutions. They are not of course binding on member countries, yet they have moral weight.

2. However,regrettably, countries went to wars. On such occasions the United Nations has worked hard to stop such wars as quickly as possible. For example, when India and Pakistan fought a war over Jammu and Kashmir in 1947, the United Nations successfully persuaded both countries to stop that war.

3. On the other hand, United Nations activities recognised the need to strengthen conditions of peace through control or elimination of dangerous weapons. There are four main aspects of the United Nations activities which have made our worlds somewhat peaceful.They are:

(i) mediation activities to help countries to reach an agreement, without using armed forces.

(ii) Peacekeeping activities to keep warning nations apart and restore peace without firing a shot.

(iii) Permitting some member countries to forcibly intervene in a troubled area and restore peace in an area.

(iv) Disarmament activities aimed at reducing or totally prohibiting tools of war like landmines, chemical weapons, etc. It is important to learn more about each of these four peace activities of the United Nations.
