Answer :

Answer:

d. Control atomic energy, especially the manufacture of weapons.

Explanation:

  • The United Nations established in 1945 after the end of the Second World War had its aims and goals directed towards bringing world peace and security all over the countries.
  • However, it has failed on many occasions. One of the earliest and most serious failure of the United Nations was its inability to control atomic energy and the manufacture of biological weapons by nations.
