More Definitions of Peacekeeping

Peacekeeping means something more than traditional “inter-positional” or “blue helmet” peacekeeping as understood from the 1970s, but something less than robust combat as “peace enforcement” has come to be known more recently. While it would not have the ability to confront either party militarily, the International Presence would be armed for combat operations limited in scale and time and would enforce the mandate by fighting insurgency and intrusions where necessary, but primarily through working with the parties to prevent violations of the agreement by individuals or groups intent upon undermining the process. This would mean the ability to confront and take action against elements from either side that were violating the agreement, stopping them and holding them until the authorities on the relevant side appeared to arrest and detain where required. The International Presence could thus have temporary powers of arrest and detention, if it has to take action before the authorities of either party can arrive on the scene of trouble. The Presence should also be capable of guaranteeing the agreement through the mechanism of a “trip wire;” assisting in the control of the borders
