Abstract
The article notes, that many disputes between States lead to conflict relations and even armed clashes between them. Therefore, peaceful dispute resolution bodies often play an important role in conflict prevention and thus in ensuring international security. The International Court of Justice of the United Nations has another important function – by resolving disputes between States over the interpretation of certain international legal concepts, this court promotes the introduction of a common interpretation, that is, bringing states to common positions. The decisions in several controversial cases and the advisory opinions of the Court show that in matters of aggression or the unlawful use of force, the Court sometimes does not fully rely on current and recognized international law.
