Under Article 7 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, which statement correctly distinguishes the office-based capacities of State/Government heads and Foreign Ministers from those of diplomatic mission heads, without producing full powers?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer A
Article 7 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties distinguishes representative capacities. Heads of State, Heads of Government and Foreign Ministers can perform treaty-conclusion acts by virtue of office without producing full powers. Heads of diplomatic missions have a narrower office-based capacity to adopt the text of a treaty between their sending and receiving States. Other representatives may act with full powers or where the States' practice or circumstances dispense with them.
