While recognizing the UN's essential function in fostering global stability, peace and order, the dissertation argues that its effectiveness is hampered by structural barriers and the geopolitical interests and calculations of powerful countries, specifically the USA. The dissertation highlights the importance of international law as a cornerstone of the UN Charter and examines the implementation of international regulations, emphasizing the significance of nations' compliance, diplomatic engagement, and international cooperation. This dissertation scrutinizes the responses of both the UN and the USA to the crisis and critically analyzes the constraints of the UN's reaction, specifically the limitations posed via the veto held by the Security Council members mainly the USA despite its self-proclaimed role as a defender of international law. Accordingly, the dissertation juxtaposes America's military aid and defense to Ukraine with its historical record of interventions and double standards in abiding to international norms and law. Most of all, this dissertation contends that the Ukraine-Russia War serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of the global order and the challenges faced by the United Nations. It underscores the urgent need for a renewed commitment to multilateralism and abidance to universal norms. The dissertation concludes that strengthening the UN's enforcement mechanisms and fostering international law are vital steps toward accomplishing global order, stability and peace.otherOther
