Question

2. What could the United Nation forces have done differently to avoid China entering the war?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The Korean War from 1950 to 1953 was the most severe test the United Nations had to face since its inception in 1945. As part of the whole Cold War scenario, the Korean War was a complicated issue with which the United Nations had to successfully deal with or lose credibility just five years after it had  come into being.

In June 1950, North Korean troops unexpectedly attacked South Korea and

America wanted the invasion immediately brought before the Security Council.

At the end of World War Two, Korea was effectively spilt in two; the south was in the hands of America while Russia dominated the north. The United Nations had already involved itself in the affairs of Korea when in 1947, before partition, it had declared its intentions that elections should be held for a government for the whole country and that the United Nations would oversee these elections to ensure that they were fair.
