Law of Treaties

In general " the right of entering international engagements is an attribute of State sovereignty ", as was declared by the Permanent Court of International Justice in the Wimbledon case (1923). However, the capacity of a particular State to enter into any category, or all categories, of treaties, may be limited by reason of its qualified status. Thus, protected States have usually (subject to anything laid down in the treaty between the protecting and the protected State) no treaty-making capacity of their own, treaties being concluded on their behalf by the protecting State.
