Why the UN can rely on its ‘Symbolic Power’ to stop the war in Gaza

I wrote a Medium article arguing that the United Nations (UN) maintained legitimacy despite repeated criticism by Israel during the war in Palestine. The article claimed that the UN can rely on its '‘symbolic power’ to maintain international peace and security amid the war in Palestine despite the UN Security Council vetoing resolutions calling for a ‘ceasefire’.

The article is an intersection of Strategic Communication and International Relations.
