U.N. Charter

The U.N. Charter is the foundational document of the United Nations, established in 1945, which sets out the organization's purpose, principles, and structure. It aims to promote international peace and security, develop friendly relations among nations, and promote social and economic progress. The Charter defines the roles of the Security Council, General Assembly, and other bodies, and outlines rules for how countries should behave, especially in resolving conflicts peacefully. It serves as a global framework for cooperation and the rule of law among member states to prevent war and address international issues collectively.
