If the third world war happens then who can stop it? First and second World War ended due to…

Third World War: From the Russia-Ukraine war to the Iran-Israel conflict to the recent India-Pakistan tensions, the world has seen many small to large conflicts in the recent years. However, this is not the first time the world has witnessed these small conflicts. The first world war began in the year 1914 and it ended in 1918 with the victory of the Allied Powers over the Central Powers, resulting in the signing of the Treaty of Versailles. Similarly, the second world war started in the year 1939 and it ended in 1945 with the victory of the Allies, led by France, Great Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union. Both of these global wars were fought in a timespan where only limited countries of the world had nuclear powers. However, as of date, most of the global powers of the world have nuclear bombs. If a world war starts now, it will be difficult to stop it at any point in time. However, here are some global organisations which can still stop the war.

1. United Nations Security Council: The United Nations Security Council is a 15 member body which is primary responsibility for the maintenance of international peace and security across the world. With the determining of existence of threat to the peace or act of aggression, the UNSC works for peace across the globe.

2. International Court of Justice: The International Court of Justice, also known as the “World Court,” works to settle legal disputes between states in accordance with international law. The global court also provides advisory opinions on legal questions. In case of world war, the international body can also stop the war.

The last time a world war ended, it was the World War II which ended with Germany’s surrender in May 1945 and Japan’s in September after the historic atomic bombings. More notably, the end of the 2nd world war lead to the founding of the United Nations for global peace.
