United Nations peacekeeping force information: edit this paragraph] United Nations peacekeeping force.
United Nations peacekeeping forces
This is a cross-border special force established in accordance with relevant UN resolutions. It was established during the Suez crisis of 1956. Entrusted by the United Nations General Assembly or the Security Council, it is active in areas with international conflicts. Soldiers of peacekeeping forces wear sky-blue helmets or blue berets with the abbreviation of "UN" on them, and the armbands are decorated with the pattern of "Earth and Olive Branch". Anyone who participates in the United Nations peacekeeping forces must be sent to the training centers of the four Nordic countries for special training, familiarizing himself with the functions, objectives and tasks of the peacekeeping forces and conducting special military training. United Nations peacekeeping forces are different from the special forces of other countries in carrying out their tasks. It must make its existence public and travel in the most conspicuous public places, such as roads, squares and busy lots.
United Nations peacekeeping force is a form of United Nations peacekeeping operation, and the other two forms are military observer mission and multinational force.
(1) The role of the United Nations peacekeeping force is to prevent local conflicts from expanding, or to prevent conflicts from recurring, to help civilians who have suffered in the war, and to create conditions for the final political settlement of conflicts.
Troop expenditure
Since the end of the cold war, the cost of troops has increased greatly. 1993, the annual cost of United Nations peacekeeping dropped slightly to $3.6 billion, reflecting how high the cost was in Yugoslavia and Somalia. 1998, the cost was reduced to less than $654.38 billion. However, a large-scale operation soon took place, and 2006.5438+0 increased. The approved budget is $2.8 billion, but the total amount is actually higher. The latest fiscal year ended on June 30, 2006, and the United Nations peacekeeping expenses reached $5 billion.
Theoretically, all Member States of the United Nations should share all costs equally according to the specific regulations adopted. Despite this provision, as of July 2004, the total amount of arrears still reached $654.38+02 billion.
Participation of countries
The Charter of the United Nations stipulates that all countries must participate in peacekeeping operations, and all United Nations Member States must provide troops and equipment needed by the Security Council. Since 1948, nearly 130 countries have provided troops or police for peacekeeping. However, data detailing which country provided how many people participated in which tasks were not made public, but it is estimated that1100,000 soldiers or police officers have fought under the United Nations flag in the past 56 years. March 2008 1654.
Despite a large number of military contributions, the biggest financial burden still falls on developed countries. The main providers of 10 troops are Pakistan (10, 173), Bangladesh (9675), India (947 1) and Nepal (3628).
The commander of peacekeeping operations, namely UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, reminded Member States that "it is the obligation of all Member States to provide well-equipped, well-trained and disciplined troops (police) for peacekeeping operations. It should not be borne only by countries in the southern hemisphere. "
In March 2008, in addition to military personnel, 5 187 international personnel, 2 03 1 United Nations Volunteers and12,036 local personnel also participated in peacekeeping operations.
As of April 2008, 2,468 soldiers out of 65,438+000 were killed in peacekeeping operations. [4] The top three are India (127), Canada (1 14) and Ghana (1 13).
The proportion of developing countries participating in peacekeeping forces is higher than that of developed countries. The main reason is that soldiers from smaller countries can help dilute the color of imperialism. For example, in February 2005, Eritrea expelled all people from the United States, Russia, Europe and Canada, while they were preparing for the peacekeeping mission. In addition, developed countries have played the role of paying more money. The United Nations provided $65,438+0,000 plus equipment to each soldier from donor countries. These are all from developed countries. And equipment and training can also be regarded as a kind of salary. United Nations peacekeeping missions can enable these developing countries to maintain their military posts without spending a lot of money. Only 4.5% of the peacekeepers are from EU countries, and less than 1% are from the United States. [Expert comment on Yin Qian, a famous writer in chinese peacekeepers: "What kind of mission do the soldiers in chinese peacekeepers undertake? They were on the verge of crisis and were undergoing the test of life and death, but later they dared to take the lead. They tolerate and transcend suffering with a broad and simple love for life, rather than fighting suffering in that destructive and negative way. No matter how hard hit, none of the main characters in the novel are cold-blooded and depressed. They all have the indomitable commitment of giants. (See Yin Qian's Mature Novel.)
[Edit this paragraph] The United Nations peacekeeping force has two distinct characteristics.
First of all, it is not mandatory.
Its existence and activities need to be decided by the Security Council or the General Assembly, with the consent of all parties concerned (15, at least 9 members of the United Nations agree, and the five permanent members of China, the United States, Britain, Russia and France have not voted against it), and then the Secretary-General of the United Nations is authorized to organize it; After moving in, once the government asks for withdrawal, it must be withdrawn immediately.
Second, it is obviously neutral, and its members must come from countries that have no direct interests with both sides of the conflict.
It is different from the real army. It has no battlefield and no enemies. This is a political and diplomatic force. Except in self-defense, UN peacekeeping forces shall not use force without authorization. We must strictly observe neutrality, and we must not get involved in any party to the conflict, let alone interfere in the internal affairs of the country.
The commander-in-chief of the United Nations peacekeeping force is the Secretary-General of the United Nations.
Troops are provided voluntarily by Member States of the United Nations. Peacekeeping forces are composed of units of armed forces, and soldiers can be equipped with light defensive weapons. The United Nations stipulates that when carrying out international peacekeeping missions, the armed forces of all countries should wear their own uniforms, their own rank marks, their own national flags on their left arms and the United Nations flags on their right arms. In order to facilitate the identification of peacekeeping forces, troops of all countries wear blue helmets printed with the United Nations logo and the English UN. Over time, people habitually call peacekeeping troops "blue helmets".
(2) Sending military observer missions is another form of United Nations peacekeeping operations.
The dispatch of military observer teams by the United Nations to conflict areas should be decided by the Security Council or the General Assembly, authorized by the Secretary-General of the United Nations and agreed by all parties concerned. The personnel of the observation team are provided by Member States of the United Nations and are composed of unarmed military officers. Its mission is to maintain peace. Observers shall not carry weapons when performing their duties, strictly observe neutrality, and shall not be involved in any party to the conflict, let alone interfere in the internal affairs of the host country.
Its specific responsibilities vary according to the situation and needs, and generally include:
Supervise truce or ceasefire and withdrawal; Observe and report on the situation in conflict areas; Implementation of the disengagement agreement; Preventing illegal border crossing or infiltration; And other tasks entrusted by United Nations resolutions. The dispatch of military observer teams is a temporary measure of United Nations peacekeeping operations, and all of them have a certain period of time, which can be extended by the Security Council as appropriate.
(3) After the Cold War, with the increase of regional conflicts, the number and scale of United Nations peacekeeping operations have been increasing, and the nature and role of peacekeeping operations are often beyond the scope of traditional responsibilities, resulting in a serious shortage of funds for the United Nations.
To this end, in addition to peacekeeping forces, the United Nations also participates in peacekeeping operations with the help of multinational forces voluntarily formed by Member States. The expenses of the multinational force are generally paid by the participating countries. Soldiers of multinational forces participating in United Nations peacekeeping operations wear their national uniforms, and the main symbols are the United Nations flag and emblem.
[Edit this paragraph] Peacekeeping operations are mainly divided into two categories.
United Nations peacekeeping operations directly led by the Secretary-General (including military observer missions and peacekeeping forces) and peacekeeping operations authorized by the Secretary-General and directed by regional organizations or major countries (including multinational forces and "humanitarian intervention forces"). From the end of World War II to May 2000, the United Nations organized 68 peacekeeping operations, in which more than 750,000 soldiers, police and civilians participated. Its purpose has expanded from the traditional monitoring of ceasefire and mediation to preventive diplomacy, peacekeeping and peace reconstruction. Its tasks include monitoring ceasefires, truces and withdrawal; Disengage the parties to the conflict; Observe and report the situation; Help to implement the peace agreement; Prevent illegal cross-border or infiltration, and maintain law and order in conflict areas. With the changes in the international situation, the scope of peacekeeping operations has gradually expanded, involving many non-traditional tasks such as monitoring elections, holding referendums, protecting and distributing humanitarian assistance, helping mine clearance and returning refugees to their homes. In addition to military personnel, there are also civilian police and civilian personnel participating in the peacekeeping team. United Nations peacekeeping forces have made positive contributions to maintaining and restoring regional peace and helping to resolve regional conflicts, and their functions and roles have attracted more and more attention from the world. 1988 The Swedish Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Peace Prize to this unit wearing a blue beret.
As of September, the total number of United Nations peacekeepers (military and police) was 30,000. During the period of 1986- 199 1, the average annual peacekeeping expenditure was about $380 million, which soared to 173 billion in 1992 and13.6 billion in 1993. From 65438 to 0995, the United Nations spent $2.8 billion on peacekeeping, of which Bosnia and Herzegovina alone accounted for half. The peacekeeping expenditure of 1996 is1600 million dollars. From 1948 to 1998+00, where the United Nations sent the first peacekeeping force, more than 500 United Nations personnel have been killed in the line of duty. Canadian soldiers suffered the most, followed by India, France, Britain and Ghana.
Since the founding of the United Nations, 1945,10 countries have sent peacekeepers. By 1 June 65438+September 19961,the five countries that sent the most troops were Pakistan (17 19), Russia (1kloc-0/77) and Bangladesh (177). 1994165438+10. In October, the United Nations Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali established the United Nations Mine Clearance Fund, thus establishing a special source of funds for the United Nations mine clearance plan. 65438+1On July 5-7, 1995, an international demining conference sponsored by the United Nations Department of Humanitarian Affairs was held in Geneva, Switzerland, with the purpose of raising funds for the United Nations demining activities around the world. The meeting raised a total of $20 million.
199810129 October, UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan set the minimum age for Member States to provide peacekeepers to the United Nations: the minimum age for civilian police and observers provided by Member States to UN peacekeeping operations should not be less than 25 years old. Since 1980s, China has been actively supporting peacekeeping operations. 1988 in September, China formally applied to join the United Nations Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations. From 65438 to 0989, China sent a delegation to the United Nations Transitional Assistance Mission in Namibia for the first time to help Namibia achieve its independence from South Africa. 1in April, 1992, China officially sent its first "blue helmet" unit, the engineering brigade, to Cambodia to carry out its mission.
In order to distinguish the United Nations troops from ordinary troops, personnel will wear navy blue hats, and vehicles and buildings will be painted white with "UN" written on them.
A unit formed in the name of the United Nations to carry out military tasks. According to the resolutions of the United Nations Security Council or the General Assembly, and with the consent of the countries concerned, the United Nations Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations is responsible for establishing and sending it to international conflict areas that threaten peace to carry out special peacekeeping tasks. Its military personnel are provided by Member States of the United Nations, and its funds are assessed or voluntarily contributed by Member States of the United Nations.
The armed forces organized by the United Nations help to maintain and restore peace in conflict areas, with the participation of military personnel, but have no enforcement power. Referred to as peacekeeping force. There is no provision for peacekeeping forces in the Charter of the United Nations. Peacekeeping forces are gradually developed by the United Nations in the practice of resolving regional conflicts, and are an innovation of the United Nations in maintaining world peace.
Peacekeeping forces are the messengers of United Nations peacekeeping operations. The main purpose of United Nations peacekeeping operations is to curb the expansion of conflicts or prevent the recurrence of conflicts, and to gain time and create conditions for the final political settlement of conflicts.
United Nations peacekeeping operations can be roughly divided into two categories: peacekeeping forces and military observer missions.
The former is generally composed of armed soldiers, while the latter is generally composed of unarmed soldiers. Their task is to supervise cease-fire, truce, truce and withdrawal; Observe and report the situation in conflict areas; Isolate the parties to the conflict and help restore public order or maintain order in the conflict area; Delivery and protection of humanitarian assistance; Supervise general elections or referendums, etc.
Peacekeeping forces are generally decided, organized and led by the Security Council (in some cases by the General Assembly) and are under the command of the Secretary-General. Usually, they have the following four characteristics: ① they must obtain the consent of the host country and other interested parties in advance; (2) Strictly observe neutrality in action, do not interfere in the internal affairs of the host country, and do not take sides in conflicts; (3) No use of force except in self-defense; ④ Peacekeeping operations are temporary and non-lasting.
From 1948, when the United Nations first established a truce supervision organization in the Middle East, to 1994, when the United Nations sent a military observer mission to Tajikistan, the United Nations conducted 34 peacekeeping operations.
[Edit this paragraph] United Nations peacekeeping operations can be roughly divided into four stages.
① prophase (1948 ~ 1955). The United Nations sent two military observer missions;
② developmental stage (1956 ~ 1978). The United Nations has conducted 1 1 peacekeeping operations;
③ Stagnant stage (1978 ~ 1987). Because of the all-round cold war between the United States and the Soviet Union, the United Nations did not carry out new peacekeeping operations.
④ revitalization stage (1988 ~ 1994). Due to the end of the Cold War and the relaxation of the relationship between the East and the West, the United Nations launched the 2 1 peacekeeping operation.
Peacekeeping forces have made great contributions to maintaining world peace, and 1988 won the Nobel Peace Prize.
1988165438+1On October 2nd, China formally joined the UN Special Committee on Peacekeeping Operations.

When Ban Ki-moon left for the United States, he held a grand farewell ceremony for him. Among them, a female student from Zhongzhou Girls' High School presented him with a bamboo screen symbolizing good luck on behalf of the school. Coincidentally, this female student became Ban Ki-moon's wife several years later. He and his wife (Pan) Ms. Liu Chunze have a son and two daughters. Ban Ki-moon is proficient in English and French, and is familiar with German and Japanese.
After graduating from high school, Ban Ki-moon was admitted to Seoul National University (translated as Seoul National University), the highest institution in Korea, and wished to enter the diplomatic major.

From 65438 to 0985, Ban Ki-moon received a master's degree in administration from Harvard University. After returning to China, he was recommended to work in the Prime Minister's Office, which put his career development on the fast track.
From 65438 to 0985, Ban Ki-moon was recommended to be in charge of protocol affairs in the Secretary's Office of the Prime Minister, which began to attract attention. 1996 to 1998, as the chief secretary for foreign affairs and security affairs of President Jin Yongsan, in charge of foreign affairs and security affairs.

After serving as a diplomat, Ban Ki-moon has always been appreciated by bosses at all levels because of his honesty and meticulousness. He has a nickname "Master" in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The chief official was an official post in Silla period in ancient times.
