Arbitration typically involves an independent party making a binding decision after hearing arguments from both sides in a dispute. In this context, the response that best fits the definition of arbitration is:
"After hearing both sides, the United Nations decides to end the Russian occupation of Crimea."
This choice reflects an independent party (the United Nations) making a decision after considering both sides of the argument.
