ZIF-Briefing: The Relaunch of Peace Enforcement

International peacekeeping missions are under immense pressure. The end of the NATO mission in Afghanistan and the withdrawal of the UN mission from Mali have fuelled doubts about their purpose. High expectations were therefore placed on the UN's "New Agenda for Peace" published in July 2023. One of its recommendations concerns peace enforcement operations deployed not by the UN but by regional organisations, in particular the AU. The new ZIF briefing by Tobias von Gienanth describes historical precedents and assesses the prospects of success of this proposal.
