The correct answer is: A. 29 May.
International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers is observed on 29 May each year. It was established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2002 to pay tribute to all the men and women who have served and continue to serve in United Nations peacekeeping operations, and to honor the memory of those who have lost their lives in the cause of peace.
The first United Nations peacekeeping operation was established in 1948 in Palestine. Since then, more than 1 million men and women from over 120 countries have served in over 70 peacekeeping operations. Peacekeepers have helped to resolve conflicts, protect civilians, and promote peace and security around the world.
On 29 May 2022, the United Nations will mark the 75th anniversary of its first peacekeeping operation. The theme for the 2022 commemoration is “People. Peace. Progress. The Power of Partnerships.”
