Abstract

The conflict and war cases in the international world have become a concern for almost every country in the world due to their impact on the social and economic that has never ending. The conflict resolution theoretically can be done by diplomatic acts involving the conflict either between the conflict parties or by a third party, although this effort does not always end up in a peaceful way. In this case, security cases that still happening in Ukraine and Gaza will become the main study to be discussed due to the biggest impact on the international world. This study aims to explore does failed diplomacy is to blame in the Ukraine and Gaza security cases, which have been on going and have been happening for a long time by employing secondary data through literature review and observation. The result of the study shows that deeper issues like nationalism, ideological differences, and power disparities have produced situations in which diplomacy finds it difficult to be successful. The larger ideological and historical influences influencing these problems are best shown by Israel's Zionist worldview, which frequently conflicts with Palestinian claims, and Russia's historical perception of Ukraine as falling within its sphere of influence.
