The word "福" written by the peacekeeping officers and soldiers is full of New Year flavor! , what tasks do they mainly perform outside?

The responsibilities of peacekeeping forces are to monitor ceasefires or ceasefires, withdraw troops from conflict areas to observe and report on situations; implement disengagement agreements; prevent illegal border crossings or infiltrations; and perform other tasks authorized by United Nations resolutions. Sending a military observation team is a temporary measure for United Nations peacekeeping operations. It has a certain period of time. The Security Council decides whether it can be extended based on specific circumstances. After the Cold War, as regional conflicts intensified, the number and scale of United Nations peacekeeping operations increased. The nature and role of peacekeeping operations often exceeded traditional responsibilities, resulting in a serious shortage of United Nations funds. In this regard, in addition to peacekeeping forces, foreign United Nations also participate in peacekeeping operations with the help of multinational forces voluntarily formed by member states. Participating countries usually bear the cost of the multinational force. Soldiers from multinational forces participating in United Nations peacekeeping operations wear their national uniforms, and the main symbols are the United Nations flag and United Nations emblem.

Peacekeeping troops cannot take the initiative to attack. The commander-in-chief of the United Nations peacekeeping forces is the Secretary-General of the United Nations. Military personnel are voluntarily provided by United Nations member states. Peacekeeping forces are composed of detachments of armed forces, and soldiers may be equipped with light defensive weapons. When conducting international peacekeeping operations, the United Nations stipulates that the military of each country must wear the uniforms of its own military, wear its national military rank insignia, wear its national flag on the left arm, and wear the United Nations flag on the right arm. In order to easily identify peacekeeping troops, troops from various countries wear blue helmets, because blue represents peace, with the United Nations and the UN's English logo printed on them. For a long time, everyone has been accustomed to referring to peacekeeping forces as "blue helmets."

Sending military observer missions is another form of United Nations peacekeeping operations. If the United Nations dispatches a military observation team to a conflict area, it must be decided by the Security Council or the General Assembly and authorized by the United Nations Secretary-General to organize it with the consent of all parties concerned. The team is staffed by UN member states and includes unarmed military officers. Its mission is to conduct peacekeeping operations. Observers are not allowed to carry weapons when performing their tasks, must remain neutral, and must not participate in any party in the conflict, let alone interfere in the internal affairs of the host country. Peacekeeping forces are a form of United Nations peacekeeping operations, its other two forms are military observer missions and multinational forces. The role of the United Nations peacekeeping force is to prevent the expansion of local conflicts or the recurrence of conflicts, and to help civilians who have been victims of wars in order to evacuate conflict areas after creating conditions for a final political settlement of conflicts.

In peacekeeping operations, developing countries participate more than developed countries. The main reason is that the army comes from a small country, which helps to dilute the imperialism. For example, in December 2005, when Eritrea prepared to carry out a peacekeeping mission, it repatriated all Americans, Russians, Europeans and Canadians. Another reason is that developed countries assume more of a financing role. The United Nations provides each troop-donating country with US$1,000 per month, plus equipment supplies, all from developed countries. In addition, equipment and training are also a kind of salary, and UN peacekeeping missions can allow these developing countries to maintain their military positions without spending a lot of money. In peacekeeping operations, soldiers and civilians from EU countries account for only 4.5%, and the United States accounts for less than 1%.
