For a state to exercise self-defence in international law, the force exercised must be proportionate to the threat posed. 2. A South African is a monist state and as such, all international law automatically forms part of the law of the Republic. 3. When a state exercises universal jurisdiction, it does so as an agent of all humankind; and there is no need for any other jurisdictional link prior to the state exercising that form of jurisdiction. 4. Diplomacy and trade between kingdoms/empires existed in Africa before the Peace of Westphalia and the beginning of colonisation. 5. The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court only bestows upon the court two forms of jurisdiction, namely territoriality and nationality. 6. The Malabo Protocol adopted by the African Union in 2014 only allows for immunity for heads of states and senior state officials for the duration of their tenure of office. 7. The Malabo Protocol does not make reference to the Rome Statute of the ICC, neither does it contain any clauses to regulate possible complementarity between these two international courts. 8. The ICC can in certain circumstances enjoy jurisdiction over a non-state party to the Rome Statute where the non-state party enters a declaration recognising the jurisdiction of the ICC in respect of that particular crime. 9. Due to multiple membership in different international law forums (e.g. African Union, Rome Statute of the ICC, United Nations), states can possibly find themselves caught in between conflicting norms and obligations they owe to these various bodies or treaties. 10. International legal personality denotes the ability to act independently on the international plane. 11. The Security Council of the United Nations is made up of 15 members: 10 are permanent and 5 are non-permanent. 12. A secondary/derivative international law subject’s international legal personality is a natural consequence of its existence. 13. In terms of the section 231 of the Constitution the negotiating and signing of all international agreements is the responsibility of the National Council of Provinces.
