Q2Domain Verified
A treaty is concluded between State A and State B. State A subsequently enters into a new treaty with State C, which contains provisions that are in direct conflict with the original treaty between A and B. Assuming both treaties are valid and not in conflict with jus cogens, which of the following is the most likely outcome regarding the application of the treaties between the respective parties, as per the VCLT?
Both treaties will be considered invalid due to the conflicting obligations.
The later treaty between A and C will prevail between States A and C, while the earlier treaty between A and B will continue to apply between A and B.
The earlier treaty between A and B will prevail due to its prior establishment.
State A will be obligated to seek amendment or termination of the earlier treaty with State B before ratifying the treaty with State C.
Q3Domain Verified
During treaty negotiations, State X insists on a reservation that purports to exclude the application of a core provision of the treaty that is widely considered to be a fundamental principle of international environmental law, a domain often associated with erga omnes obligations. If other states accept this reservation, what is the most likely legal status of State X's reservation and the treaty's applicability to State X?
The reservation is valid, but the treaty will not enter into force for State X.
The reservation is valid and will be effective, modifying the treaty's application for State X.
The reservation is invalid because it conflicts with a peremptory norm of general international law (jus cogens).
The reservation is valid, but State X will be bound by the excluded provision nonetheless.
