UNFICYP was a peace-keeping force was created for which country ?
Answer: A
UNFICYP was created for Cyprus.
The United Nations Peacekeeping Force in Cyprus was established by Security Council Resolution 186 in March 1964 to prevent fighting between the Greek Cypriot and Turkish Cypriot communities. After the Turkish intervention of 1974 it took over the supervision of the buffer zone (the Green Line) that divides the island, and it is still deployed there.
Greece and Turkey are the two outside powers with a stake in the Cyprus dispute, which is why they appear as distractors, but the force was created for and is stationed in Cyprus, not in either of them.
