In which of the following proceedings did the International Court of Justice decline to give the requested advisory opinion?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

The Court declined the request in Legality of the Use by a State of Nuclear Weapons in Armed Conflict because the request fell outside the scope of the World Health Organization's activities. It therefore lacked jurisdiction to give the requested opinion. The separate General Assembly request in Legality of the Threat or Use of Nuclear Weapons did receive an advisory opinion.
