Which one of the following is not part of the four main criteria set out by 1933 Montevideo Convention on the Rights and Duties of the state ?
Answer and explanation

Article 1 of the 1933 Montevideo Convention on the Rights and Duties of States stipulates four declarative criteria of statehood in international law: (a) a permanent population, (b) a defined territory, (c) a government, and (d) capacity to enter into relations with other states.
