Within hours of the invasion, Kuwaiti and US delegations requested a meeting of the UN Security Council, which passed Resolution 660, condemning the invasion and demanding a withdrawal of Iraqi troops. On August 3, the Arab League passed its own resolution demanding a withdrawal. The resolution also called for a solution to the conflict from within the League, and warned against foreign intervention. On August 6, the Security Council passed Resolution 661, placing economic sanctions on Iraq.
There were three Gulf Wars in the 20th & 21st Centuries: 1. Iran-Iraq War (1980-1988) 2. Operation Desert Storm (Jan/Feb 1991) 3. Operation Iraqi Freedom (2003- )

The Iran-Iraq War was resolved by UN Security Resolution 598 which provided for a ceasefire between Iran and Iraq and a pre-war status quo between the parties (in terms of territorial claims). Iran and Iraq did not normalize relations until Saddam Hussein was overthrown in 2003.

The Iran-Iraq War ended when both countries accepted UNSC Resolution 598, which was a ceasefire, on August 20, 1988. Relations between the two countries did not resume until Iraq's government was re-established following the American overthrow of Saddam Hussein.
