What is a ‘dispute’?
- “A dispute is a disagreement on a point of law or fact, a conflict of legal views
or of interests between two persons.” Mavrommatis Palestine Concessions
(Greece v. U.K.), 1924 P.C.I.J
Legal vs political disputes -- Difficult to distinguish between the two
ICJ, Obligations concerning Negotiations relating to Cessation of the Nuclear Arms
Race and to Nuclear Disarmament (Marshall Islands v. United Kingdom): ICJ found
that it lacked jurisdiction altogether and declined move to the merits stage, on the
basis that a ‘dispute’ did not exist. Marshall Islands brought claims against the
United Kingdom, India, and Pakistan for their alleged failure to fulfill their
obligations to conclude negotiations that would lead to nuclear disarmament. The
ICJ found that in all three cases there was no justiciable dispute between the parties.
The respondent states argued that Marshall Islands had never brought its claim to
their attention, let alone engage in negotiations or talks on the matter
ICJ’s requirement that a ‘dispute’ exists can prevent vexatious or unfounded cases
being brought before the ICJ

dispute.”
- 3.3 “The parties to a dispute have the duty, in the event of failure to reach a
solution by any one of the above peaceful means, to continue to seek a
settlement of the dispute by other peaceful means agreed upon by them.”
Art 66, Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties:
