    International law relies on states enforcing rules voluntarily as there is no overarching authority to compel compliance. It lacks effective enforcement mechanisms and any state on the UN Security Council can veto actions. While some disputes like between Malaysia and Singapore are peacefully resolved, other issues face noncompliance, such as the ongoing conflicts between Palestine and Israel, the US and Iraq, and the crisis in Syria.
