The purpose of the UN sending peacekeeping forces to different countries is−

  1. i. To establish world peace
  2. ii. To protect human rights
  3. iii. To establish control over the country

Think it through first, then pick an option.

  1. a i and ii
  2. b i and iii
  3. c ii and iii
  4. d i, ii and iii
Answer and explanation

Correct answer: a i and ii

i and ii: peacekeepers are sent to defend peace and human rights; not iii.

Why the other options are wrong

  • b i and iii: iii is wrong: the UN does not send peacekeepers to control a country; ii is left out.
  • c ii and iii: iii is wrong: establishing control is not the aim; i is left out.
  • d i, ii and iii: iii is wrong: a peacekeeping mission does not aim to take control of a country.
