The legality of seizing Russian Central Bank assets turns first on precision about the object and mechanism of the proposed measure.

The geopolitics of Outer Space has become unavoidable because contemporary state power, economic stability, and military effectiveness are now structurally dependent on orbital systems that are simultaneously strategic, congested, and weakly governed.

Customary international law operates as the default legal framework of the international system. It governs situations in which treaty law is absent, incomplete, politically unusable, or deliberately avoided.

The geopolitical significance of Greenland derives first from immutable geographic realities that structure strategic behaviour long before political preferences, economic ambitions, or legal claims are considered.

The Tigray war marks one of the most consequential armed conflicts of the early twenty-first century for public international law, not because it created new rules, but because it exposed how fragile existing legal frameworks become under conditions of internal fragmentation, regional entanglement, and sustained information control.

The Rohingya Genocide is not a rhetorical label, a political slogan, or a journalistic shortcut. It is a legal characterization that must be assessed against the strict thresholds of international criminal law.

Human rights violations in Venezuela have become a persistent and structurally embedded concern within contemporary public international law. Far from isolated or episodic misconduct, the available evidence points to sustained patterns of state action and omission that engage international responsibility across multiple legal regimes.

The Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities represents one of the most consequential normative developments in contemporary international human rights law.
