Which one of the following domestic laws of a country is illegal under International Law?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

A State may legislate on its nationals' acts (nationality principle), acts within its territory (territoriality) and acts aboard its vessels or aircraft (flag principle); but "A law declaring illegal a transaction between two foreigners concluded to be performed in their respective countries" lacks any jurisdictional nexus and is illegal under international law.
