SEPARATE OPINION OF JUDGES MOSLER AND JENNINGS

We have voted in favour of this Order indicating interim measures of
protection, but in doing so we wish to emphasize two things :

First, that the duties, in accordance with the provisions of the United
Nations Charter, and in accordance with the Charter of the Organization
of American States, to refrain in their international relations from the
threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or the political-
pendence of any State, and to refrain from intervention in matters within
thedomesticjurisdiction of aState, are duties whichapply to theApplicant
State as well as to the Respondent State.
Second, wewish also to emphasize the obligation of both the Parties, in
thecomplex and delicate situation in Central America at the present time,
to pursue in good faith negotiations within the context of the regional
arrangements approved by the SecurityCouncil of theUnited Nations and
endorsed by the Organization of American States.

Nous avons voté enfaveur de l'ordonnance indiquant des mesures
conservatoires, mais nous tenonsà souligner deux choses:
Premièrement,que les obligations, imposéespar les dispositions de la
Charte des Nations Unies et par la Charte de l'organisation des Etats
américains,des'abstenir,dans lesrelationsinternationales, derecourira

menace ou à l'emploi de la force contre l'intégrité territorialeou l'indé-
pendance politique d'un Etat et de ne pas intervenir dans des affairesqui
relèvent essentiellementde sa compétencenationale s'appliquentà I'Etat
demandeur tout autant qu'à l'Etat défendeur.
Deuxièmement, nous désirons aussi mettre l'accent sur l'obligation
incombant aux deux Parties, dans la situation complexe et délicate qui
règne actuellement en Amérique centrale, de mener de bonne foi des
négociationsdansle cadre des arrangements régionaux approuvés par le
Conseilde sécuritédesNations Unies et quiont l'appui del'organisation
