Abstract

As a fundamental principle, the use or treat to use of force is prohibited in international relations. Self-defence and UN collective security system are the only exceptions of this principle. Weather International Humanitarian law is high developed and stabilized which affects the use or treat to use of Nuclear weapons even in the self defence. The issue is studied in the shadow of advisory opinion of ICJ (1996).
