Sovereignty: • It is that it is up to affected countries to accept or reject offers of assistance. • AusAID: "To take uninvited action would breach international protocols and show a lack of respect for the affected country's sovereignty." The question: • Is that correct? Would it taking uninvited action always breach international law? | Publication Type: | Conference Publication | Conference Details: | Faculty of Law Staff Seminar, Clayton, Australia, 13th May, 2008 | Source of Publication: | Faculty of Law Staff Seminar.
