Validity of reservations to the provisions of international agreements

الملخص

The research addresses the topic of reservations to the provisions of international agreements. Through it, the problem was raised regarding the validity of reservations to international agreements and the adequacy of their controls. The analytical approach was used, and the research aimed to reveal the legal basis for reservations to international agreements by examining their validity, especially those related to human rights. The research reached several results, the most important of which is that all procedures must be in writing, except in the case of implicit acceptance. It is also permissible to make a reservation at times other than those specified for it in the event that there is a text for that. The most important recommendations are to urge the conclusion of an additional protocol to the Vienna Conventions to address their shortcomings, and to avoid the personal criterion as a basis for the suitability of a reservation.
