UN Sanctions

UN sanctions are measures imposed by the United Nations to influence countries' behavior without using military force. They aim to address issues like conflicts, human rights violations, or threats to peace. Sanctions can include financial restrictions (like blocking assets or banning trade), travel bans on individuals, or arms embargoes. These measures encourage compliance with international laws and resolutions by exerting economic and political pressure, while avoiding direct conflict. Sanctions are coordinated globally through UN member states to promote peace and security while respecting international law.
