What is the primary function of the World Court?

To police international waters
To settle disputes between United Nations members
To enforce global human rights
To regulate international trade

The correct answer is: To settle disputes between United Nations members

The World Court's primary function is to serve as the judicial body of the United Nations, responsible for settling disputes between member nations. This includes any legal or political disputes related to international law, human rights, and treaties. Option A, policing international waters, falls under the jurisdiction of the United Nations' International Court of Justice, but it is not the primary function of the World Court. Option C, enforcing global human rights, is an important role of the United Nations, but it falls under the responsibility of the United Nations Human Rights Council, not the World Court. Option D, regulating international trade, is handled by organizations such as the World Trade Organization, and is not within the scope of the World Court's primary function.
