Аннотация: The article is devoted to the peculiarities of the concept of formation of demilitarized territories (buffer zones) within the framework of the United Nations preventive diplomacy measures. The idea of preventive diplomacy was first formulated by the second UN Secretary-General Dag Hammarskjöld in 1960 and acquired special significance at the end of the twentieth century, which was, to some extent, due to the end of the ”Cold War”. In the article, UN preventive diplomacy as an activity that aims to prevent conflicts in the world or, if they occur, to limit the spread of conflicts is regarded. The fact that the creation of demilitarized zones is one of the measures of preventive diplomacy, which is implemented by the UN Security Council in the framework of peace enforcement operations is highlighted. Thus, the goal of this article is to analyse the examples of the formation of buffer zones under the leadership of the UN Peacekeeping Forces, which shall further supervise the compliance with the regime of such zones. In particular, the peculiarities of the legal regulation of the creation of demilitarized zones in Cyprus, in Srebrenica, as well as the border areas between North and South Korea, Israel and Egypt, Israel and Syria are considered. The study of such cases allows to determine and describe the main principles of the concept of formation of demilitarized territories (buffer zones) as a highly effective preventive diplomacy measure. In other words, the essence of the concept is to prevent armed conflict and reduce military activity by moving armed forces, military equipment and weapons as well as any other military facilities outside the zone. The concept is based on such imperative principles of International Law as peaceful settlement of disputes and non-use of force or threat of force. It is necessary to mention that the concept described in this research is based on formal grounds such as resolutions of the UN Security Council, which has certain differences from legal frameworks of buffer zones creation on the basis of bilateral or multilateral agreements.
