Written question asked by Lord Laird (Ulster Unionist Party), in the House of Lords. It was answered by Lord Howell of Guildford (Conservative) on Thursday, 8 December 2011.
State Recognition
- Question
- To ask Her Majesty’s Government what role the Montevideo Convention of 1933 has in the decision-making process on whether to recognise a state or country.
- Answer
-
My Written Answer of 2 February (Official Report, col. WA 266) set out the criteria for recognition of states. While the UK has not signed or ratified the Montevideo Convention, the criteria that we use for recognition of states reflect those set out in the Montevideo Convention.
