This study examines the nature of contemporary world conflicts, which endanger international
peace and security, thereby causing the commission of international criminal offenses, such as

Accordingly, the research will endeavor to analyze the constitutive instruments of the United
Nations and the International Criminal Court (ICC), to resolving contemporary world conflicts-;
particularly, the Russo-Ukraine conflict, which erupted in February 2022. It will further examine
the reform of the United Nations Security Council, and proffer recommendations to remedy the
Russo-Ukraine conflict and other contemporary world conflicts.
The study is conducted using the doctrinal /or dogmatic legal research, which is qualitative in
nature. The doctrinal /or dogmatic legal research is employed to discuss and analyze the legal
texts of the Charter of the United Nations and the Rome Statute, aimed at finding solutions to the
Russo-Ukraine conflict and other contemporary world conflicts in general.
