Correct Answer: Option E
Explanation

Accepted ways of resolving international conflict aim to reduce tension and restore order through negotiation, influence or controlled force. Diplomacy involves negotiation and dialogue between countries to resolve disputes peacefully. This is an accepted and widely used method.

Propaganda, though controversial, can be used to influence public opinion or sway international perspectives without direct violence. Non-military use of force includes sanctions, blockades or cyber tactics that stop short of war. It can also be used as a coercive strategy short of war.

Military force (war), although destructive, is still an accepted (though last-resort) method of resolving some international conflicts in extreme cases, especially under the just war theory or self-defence under international law.

However, Nuclear war is not an accepted method because of its catastrophic humanitarian and environmental consequences. The use of nuclear weapons is widely condemned under international norms, and global treaties like the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) aim to prevent it. It is seen as unacceptable and disproportionate in conflict resolution.
