Die Erfahrungen mit dem Einsatz der United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) von März 1978 bis Juni 1982 werden ausgewertet im Hinblick auf die Frage, welche Art von Friedenstruppe den libanesischen Interessen (Wiedererlangen staatlicher Autorität) am stärksten dient, und ob die USA ihren Einfluss und evtl. eigene Truppen für erweiterte Friedensoperationen einsetzen sollten.

On March 27, 1964, Secretary-General U Thant announced that the United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus (UNFICYP) had become operational. This announcement occurred only a few days after the initial Canadian units landed in Cyprus soon to be joined by the forces from other contributing countries. The operation, initiated under the executive direction of the Secretary-General and at the request of the Security Council, thus became another in a series of peacekeeping efforts by the United Nations. One year later the Secretary-General was able to report that during the first year of operation UNFICYP had achieved "very creditable results" but that major difficulties still remained with respect to achieving a stable and enduring peace.
