Peace Operations and the consent of states in Military Intervention

Maintaining international peace and security in accordance with the Charter is among the primary duties of the Security Council as it can even be claimed, the cornerstone of the formation of the United Nations is based on the maintenance of international peace and security. In this regard, the Security Council has been pursuing peace-keeping operations that, as international law advances, saw the next generation of such an operation.  The author, with assuming the validity of the state's satisfaction in granting it to foreign military intervention, considers the relationship between peace operations and the issue of foreign military intervention in an analytical manner and attempts have been made to determine from this transition whether peace operations could be included in the sovereignty of states in order to give consent to military intervention in the territory of the said state. A review of the various generations of peace operations suggests that the combination of two criteria of consent and military action has not been taken in any of the concepts of peacekeeping, peacebuilding and peace enforcement, therefore Peace Operations regarded as a subset calls for foreign military intervention, is not possible.
