Read the passage and answer the question: We also find that the UN is generally regarded as the most important international organisation in today’s world. In the eyes of many people all over the world, it is indispensable and represents the great hope of humanity for peace and progress. |
Which of the following statements is correct? |
Only statement A is correct. Only statement B is correct. Both statements are correct. Neither of them is correct. |
Only statement B is correct. |
The correct answer is Option 2 - Only statement B is correct. Statement A- An international organisation is a super-state with authority over its members. (Incorrect) Countries have conflicts and differences with each other. That does not necessarily mean they must go to war to deal with their antagonisms. They can, instead, discuss contentious issues and find peaceful solutions; indeed, even though this is rarely noticed, most conflicts and differences are resolved without going to war. The role of an international organisation can be important in this context. An international organisation is not a super-state with authority over its members. It is created by and responds to states. It comes into being when states agree to its creation. Once created, it can help member states resolve their problems peacefully. |
