We best avoid wars by taking even physical action to stop small ones. Everybody knows that the United Nations is not in a position to do that… We must face the fact that the United Nations is not yet the internal equivalent of our own legal system and rule of law. Police action must be to separate the belligerents and to prevent a resumption of hostilities.

Anthony Eden was born at Windlestone Hall, County Durham, England. HeĀ was an English Conservative politician who was Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1955 to 1957. He was also Foreign Secretary for three periods between 1935 and 1955, including during World War II. He is best known for his outspoken opposition to appeasement in the 1930s; his diplomatic leadership in the 1940s and 1950s; and the failure of his Middle East policy in 1956 that ended his premiership. He is generally ranked among the least successful British Prime Ministers of the 20th century, although two broadly sympathetic biographies have gone some way to redressing the balance of opinion.
