今回の Topic は、国連英検特A級、2009年度第2回の問題からです。

1. Topic                

       How can the UN revamp its peace-keeping operations to better meet current challenges? 

2. Structure

a) Thesis Statement          

       The United Nations should more tightly integrate prevention, peacemaking, and peacebuilding, improve financial situation of the UNPKO, and make great effort to better and quicker deliver on mandates.

 

b) Body の部分を構成する3つの Paragraph の Main Idea は、

第1 Paragraph 事務総長は、論争が紛争へと発展するのを防ぐべく、紛争の予防、平和維持、平和の構築に向けての取り組みを統合すべき

第2 Paragraph 更に、事務総長は加盟国に対し、UNPKOへの分担金のタイムリーな支払いを重ねて以来すべき

第3 Paragraph 2000年にブラヒミ・レポートが既に勧告していた様に、UNPKOがより効果的であるには、適切な装備、明確で、信頼に足る、そして達成可能なマンデイトを提示すべき

3. Sample

The United Nations should more tightly integrate prevention, peacemaking, and peacebuilding, improve financial situation of the UNPKO, and make great effort to better and quicker deliver on mandates. 

       To begin with, the Secretary General should better integrate prevention, peacemaking, and peacebuilding to make the most of its limited resources available to the UN peacekeeping operations, with the help of the Security Council.  To that end, the Secretary General could encourage all the stakeholders to take precautions through early warning and analysis so that disputes will not lead to conflicts.  In fact, the United Nations stands always ready to serve as the universal platform for Members States to engage in dialogue. 

      In addition, the Secretary General should ask Member States to make timely payment into assessed and voluntary contributions to the UN peacekeeping operations.  Also, the UN chief could raise public awareness towards the financial crisis of the UNPKO.  While the UN peacekeeping missions continue to represent the Organization’s largest investment of resources, especially financial resources, more than a third of the missions don’t have enough cash resources to cover their cost, which has caused delays in making payments into troop contribution countries.   

       Finally, as the report of the panel on the UNPKO, also known as the Brahimi Report, stated in 2000 that in order for the UN peacekeeping missions to be effective, they must be properly resourced and equipped and operate under clear, credible and achievable mandates.  As once the UN chief argued mandates should not be Christmas trees.  The independent and externally led examinations on all aspects of the field operations conducted in 2018 on the initiative of the Secretary General has already borne fruits to better and quicker deliver on the mandates.  

       In conclusion, the peace-keeping operations could be streamlined at the initiative of the Secretary General and the Security Council as I mentioned above.
