year = {2024},
note = {The article explores the responses by certain States to the
introduction and application of the National Security Law in Hong Kong
in 2020, on the assumption that it breaches the Sino-British Joint
Declaration and fundamental human rights of the population of Hong
Kong. It examines the lawfulness of these responses and argues that
some of them constitute retorsions, while others can be considered as
instances of ‘collective’ countermeasures in response to the
serious breach of erga omnes (partes) obligations by China.},
