In addition to the threat of a larger Middle East conflict, the world is faced with a more profound and unsettling question as tensions between the US, Israel, and Iran escalate into open conflict: Is the UN losing its legitimacy or, worse, crumbling under the weight of great-power politics?
On the rubble of World War II, the contemporary international order was constructed. The UN, which was established to “save succeeding generations from the scourge of war,” is at its center. The ban on using force against sovereign states, whether in self-defense or with permission from the UN Security Council, is at the heart of that pledge. The United Nations Charter’s legal structure was created to guarantee that authority would be constrained by the law.
That structure is under tremendous stress now.
One of the riskiest conflicts in decades, the most recent escalation involves direct strikes, retaliatory missile attacks, cyber operations, and regional proxy mobilization. Both sides’ rhetoric has emphasized deterrence and self-defense. However, the lack of unanimous Security Council approval or strong multilateral agreement has rekindled long-standing accusations that international law is administered selectively when significant states are involved.
The Security Council’s deadlock is nothing new. Its five permanent members were given veto power in 1945 as a practical accommodation to geopolitical circumstances. However, at times like these, it seems more like a structural defect than a stabilizing mechanism. The council’s capacity to take decisive action is significantly reduced when permanent members are actively or indirectly involved in a dispute. Speeches and symbolic resolutions are produced at emergency sessions, but enforcement is unusual.
The optics are concerning for many countries in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and sections of Europe. Smaller nations are frequently reminded of their international legal responsibilities. Some nations that violate territorial rights are quickly subject to sanctions systems. However, accountability procedures become much less clear when powerful actors participate in cross-border military operations.
International organizations thrive on legitimacy rather than military might. Global audiences lose faith in multilateralism if they start to perceive it as a front for geopolitical rivalry rather than a real restraint on power. And compliance follows as legitimacy declines.
But it would be premature and possibly strategically incorrect to declare the UN “dead.” UN agencies continue to coordinate humanitarian relief, track refugee movements, record human rights conditions, and support quiet diplomacy despite geopolitical impasse. Blue-helmet peacekeepers continue to stand between fighters in conflict areas. UN flags are still flown by aid convoys. Even now, negotiations go on in hallways remote from the news.
Thus, institutional instability rather than institutional disappearance is the issue.
The conflict between Tehran, Washington, and Jerusalem serves as an example of a larger change in the world order. Power is spreading. Regional blocs are claiming independence. Strategic partnerships are being reevaluated. In this new multipolar world, reaching a consensus is more difficult, and taking unilateral action is more alluring.
However, history provides a harsh lesson: instability increases as multilateral systems deteriorate. What occurs when international governing systems lose power was demonstrated throughout the 20th century’s interwar years. Rival blocs emerge. Arms races pick up speed. The likelihood of miscalculation rises.
Today’s stakes are far greater. In contrast to 1945, nuclear capability, cyberwarfare, and sophisticated missile systems today cast a shadow over the planet. The United States, Israel, and Iran would not be able to keep a regional conflict under control. The shockwaves would affect financial institutions, maritime waterways, energy markets, and vulnerable neighboring states.
So, is the United Nations in disarray?
Not quite. However, it is definitely being tested.
Whether or not member states—especially the most powerful ones—recommit to the idea that no country is above international law will determine whether it survives. Discussions on reform, such as the expansion of the Security Council and the use of veto power in situations of widespread conflict, must continue to be theoretical. They have to be given top priority in diplomacy.
The alternative is a world in which diplomacy is replaced by deterrence, institutions are replaced by alliances, and right is subtly replaced by might.
The current crisis is a test of whether global government can change to reflect the realities of the twenty-first century, not just a regional conflict. The UN faces irrelevance if it doesn’t change. However, it might still come out stronger if it reforms and the great countries decide against escalation in favor of prudence.
The choice made today could have a significant impact on the future of the international order.
