  • Presidential Power to Expel Diplomatic Personnel from the United States
    Presidential Power to Expel Diplomatic Personnel from the United States The President has inherent constitutional power to declare foreign diplomatic personnel persona non grata and to expel them forcibly from the United States; the exercise of this power is consistent with international law, including specifically the Vienna Conven­ tion on Diplomatic Relations. Inherent in the President’s power to recognize foreign countries and their ministers is implied power over the physical premises of diplomatic properties, including power to take actions necessary to protect embassies from damage, and to deny possession to or to eject those not recognized as diplomatic personnel of the sending state. A foreign diplomat who has been declared persona non grata and ordered to leave the country does not lose his diplomatic status, and thus should not be able to assert any legal entitlement to remain in the United States under the Immigration and Nationality Act; nor should such an individual be able to frustrate or delay execution of an expulsion order by renouncing his diplomatic status. The Secretary of State may revoke the visas of diplomats declared persona non grata to forestall their invocation of the INA as a basis for challenging the President’s expulsion order. Federal law enforcement officials, particularly the Secret Service, have authority to protect Iranian diplomatic property against third parties, including any persons not currently recognized by the United States as accredited diplomatic personnel. The President is authorized to call on the full range of his resources in the Executive Branch, including the military, and also on the resources of state or local law enforce­ ment agencies, to carry out an expulsion order in this situation.

  • Paradiplomacy and Its Constraints in a Quasi-Federal System – a Case Study of Hong Kong SAR and Its Implications to Chinese Foreign Policy
    Paradiplomacy and its Constraints in a Quasi-Federal System – A Case Study of Hong Kong SAR and its Implications to Chinese Foreign Policy Wai-shun Wilson CHAN ([email protected]) Introduction Thank for the Umbrella Movement in 2014, Hong Kong has once again become the focal point of international media. Apart from focusing the tensions among the government, the pro-Beijing camp and the protestors about the pathway and the pace for local democratization, some media reports have linked the movement with the Tiananmen Incident, and serves as a testing case whether “One Country, Two Systems” could be uphold under the new Chinese leadership.1 While most of the academics in Hong Kong tend to evaluate the proposition from changes in domestic politics and the freedom and rights enjoyed by the society, little evaluation is conducted from the perspective of the autonomy enjoyed by Hong Kong in international arena. In fact, both the Sino-British Joint Declaration and the subsequent Basic Law have defined the scope of Hong Kong’s autonomy in conducting external relations ‘with states, regions and relevant international organizations’. It is therefore tempted to suggest that the external autonomy enjoyed by Hong Kong SAR Government serves as the other pillar of “One Country, Two Systems”, giving an unique identity of Hong Kong in global politics which may be different from that possessed by mainland China. Though officially “One Country, Two Systems” practiced in Hong Kong (and Macao) is not recognized by Beijing as a federal arrangement between the Central People’s Government and Hong Kong SAR Government, the internal and external autonomy stipulated in the Basic Law gives Hong Kong similar, to some extent even more, power as a typical federated unit.

  • The Obligation of Diplomats to Respect the Laws and Regulations of the Hosting State: a Critical Overview of the International Practices
    laws Article The Obligation of Diplomats to Respect the Laws and Regulations of the Hosting State: A Critical Overview of the International Practices Nehaluddin Ahmad Faculty of Law and Shariah, Sultan Sharif Ali Islamic University (UNISSA), Simpang 347, Jalan Pasar Gadong, Brunei; [email protected] Received: 15 June 2020; Accepted: 4 August 2020; Published: 30 August 2020 Abstract: Under Article 9 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, a receiving state may “at any time and without having to explain its decision” declare any member of a diplomatic staff persona non grata. A person so declared is considered unacceptable and is usually recalled to his or her home nation. If not recalled, the receiving state “may refuse to recognize the person concerned as a member of the mission.” However, despite the codification of the above rules, which is largely based on pre-existing customary international law, the opportunity for diplomatic protection is not free of issues and controversies. In recent times, unfortunately, there has been a growing tendency amongst diplomats to abuse their diplomatic status, in order to commit acts prohibited by law and claim immunity from the legal process. This paper addresses the problem of abuse of immunities and privileges and its adverse implications on the balance between immunities and the duty to respect the local laws and regulations. We analyze several past cases of declaration of persona non grata involving various countries. Keywords: diplomatic law; Vienna Convention; diplomatic immunity; persona non grata; sending state; hosting state 1. Introduction A diplomatic representative is a symbol of the bilateral relationship between two states.

Bern, 008 ABC of Diplomacy Introduction Diplomacy is the means by which States throughout the world conduct their affairs in ways to ensure peaceful relations. The main task of indi- vidual diplomatic services is to safeguard the interests of their respec- tive countries abroad. This concerns as much the promotion of political, economic, cultural or scientific relations as it does international commit- ment to defend human rights or the peaceful settlement of disputes. Diplomacy takes place in both bilateral and multilateral contexts. Bilat- eral diplomacy is the term used for communication between two States, while multilateral diplomacy involves contacts between several States often within the institutionalised setting of an international organisation. Negotiation is the one of most important means of conducting diplo- macy, and in many cases results in the conclusion of treaties between States and the codification of international law. The aim of such interna- tional treaties is primarily to strike a balance between State interests. Diplomacy has existed since the time when States, empires or other centres of power dealt with each other on an official basis. Numer- ous diplomatic archives have been found in Egypt dating back to the 3th century BC.

  • Discussion Papers in Diplomacy 120 Honorary Consuls in Small State Diplomacy Through Liechtenstein's Lens

ABSTRACT The consular institution is viewed by academics and practitioners alike as the poor sibling of diplomacy. Yet the study of consular instruments offers potentially new perspectives on the subject of diplomatic representation and the exercise of state sovereignty. In this vein, the use of honorary consuls by the Principality of Liechtenstein for selected bilateral relationships provides fresh insights into the study of international relations and diplomacy, particularly for very small states. This paper investigates how Liechtenstein strategically uses honorary consuls to extend its limited bilateral diplomatic representation given constrained resources, while enhancing both its brand and international relevance. It explores the roles honorary consuls perform for Liechtenstein, especially those beyond the classical consular functions of visa issuance and citizen services.

PERSONA NON GRATA: EXPELLING DIPLOMATS WHO ABUSE THEIR PRIVILEGES I. INTRODUCTION Persona non grata is an efficient and effective means of curbing the potential abuse of diplomatic immunity. The United States State Department, in March 1986, used this means to expel twenty-five So- viet diplomats suspected of espionage.1 Although criticized by the So- viets and the United Nations, an expulsion of this kind is in accor- dance with the applicable United Nations treaties and international law. There are three justifications for this action: one, diplomats can be expelled if they violate United Nations agreements, namely the Head- quarters Agreement,2 the United Nations Charter,3 and the General Convention;4 two, under international law, a receiving state may, for national security reasons, limit a foreign mission's size;5 and three, a sovereign state possesses the fundamental right of self-defense which may be exercised by expelling foreign intelligence agents.
