- C1 and 3 only
- D1 and 2 only
Explanation
United Nations multidimensional peacekeeping operations rest on the core functions of stabilisation and peace consolidation in post-conflict settings. They operate under the principles of consent, impartiality and non-use of force except in self-defence, so extending support to a losing state in a war would violate impartiality and is not a peacekeeping function. Hence option D is correct.
