Foreword

On the occasion of its 50th Anniversary, the T.M.C. Asser Instituut proudly
presents this collection of scholarly articles written by its staff members and some
of its external research partners and friends. Celebrating a jubilee should also be a
forward-looking event. This book represents the Institute’s fields of expertise at a
moment of reflection on its work so far and on its plans for the next decade.
Emily Rosenberg characterized the era of 1870–1945 as “A World
Connecting”, which produced great achievements but also horrifying crimes
against humanity. Tobias Asser was one of the great Dutch scholars of private
and public international law, who—with remarkable foresight—grasped the need
to embed relations of power in an evolving legal order, with processes of nego-
tiation, arbitration and adjudication. Tobias Asser, himself a child of the Jewish
emancipation, was always aware of the importance that the law should do justice
to every citizen across imagined or real borders. The Hague Conference on Private
International Law, the establishment of international arbitration and jurisdic-
tion, and the Hague Peace Conference are interrelated results of Asser’s mission.
Together they embody a vision of international relations based upon the rule of
law. The horrors of war and genocide in the twentieth century appear to have shat-
tered Asser’s achievements, but in the end they survived the horrors of that time
and developed into the present mosaic of international legal institutions based in
The Hague.
The Asser Institute’s fields of research reflect this mosaic. When the law
schools of the Dutch universities decided to jointly create an inter-university insti-
tute for public and private international law, as well as European law, in 1965,
they wanted to build upon Asser’s heritage and recognized that there was no name
which was better suited than that of Tobias Asser to express their views on the task
of the Institute. Fifty years later, this appears to be even more appropriate. In the
second decade of the twenty-first century, the world is highly connected, in many
senses. More than ever we need to anchor the relations of these networks of con-
nections in the reliability of treaties, courts and non-partisan scholarship.

v
vi Foreword

As an inter-university institute, based in The Hague, the seat of the most impor-
tant international legal institutions as well as Eurojust and Europol, the Asser
Institute aims to continue being the connector of academic and high-level practi-
cal legal work, in treaty-making, legal diplomacy, trade and competition. Not only
the Netherlands, but also the European Union—as an actor in international rela-
tions and a co-guarantor of the international rule of law—demands attention in our
research.
This book is only a sample of the research being carried out by our staff and
partners, but numerous other volumes and journals jointly published by T.M.C.
Asser Press and our renowned international publishing partner Springer reflect
our experience in international and European law. We—the staff and board of the
Asser Institute—are fully committed to accept our predecessors’ fifty years of
commitment as a task for the years ahead.

Introduction

Abstract This book, published on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the
T.M.C. Asser Instituut in The Hague, is a compilation of contributions addressing
various public and private law perspectives on fundamental rights in international
and European law. In this introductory chapter, the editors present the different
contributions and their authors. The editors argue that by covering a variety of sub-
stantive topics that will not be readily found in other books, and thus by looking
over the fence, into areas that one may not be so comfortable with, inspiration and
potential solutions for fundamental rights problems may be found.

This book, published on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of the T.M.C. Asser
Instituut in The Hague, is a compilation of contributions addressing various public
and private law perspectives on fundamental rights in international and European
law. The book aims to shed more light on topical issues that can be related to a
theme which runs through the four areas of research of the T.M.C. Asser Instituut
(Public International Law, EU Law, Private International Law and International
and European Sports Law); namely fundamental rights. The chapters have been
written by staff members from the T.M.C. Asser Instituut itself, as well as by
distinguished external invited authors, who have a connection with the institute,

finally Prof. James A.R. Nafziger, Thomas B. Stoel Professor of Law and Director

President of the International Association of Sports Law.
The book consists of four parts, representing the four main areas of research:
Public International Law (Part I), EU Law (Part II), Private International Law (Part
III) and International and European Sports Law (Part IV).
In the first part of this book, the authors of Chaps. 2–4 delve into various
aspects of fundamental rights in the public international law context.
Chapter 2, entitled ‘Towards an EU Position on Armed Drones and Targeted
Killing?’ and written by Dr. Christophe Paulussen and Jessica Dorsey LL.M. J.D.,
gauges the extent to which European Union (EU) governments share the United
States (US)’ position on armed drones and targeted killing. In doing so, it aims to
assist in distilling an EU Common Position on the use of armed drones and a legal
framework for counterterrorism-related uses of force. The authors argue that an
EU Common Position should be first and foremost based in the rule of law, which
entails full respect for international law, including international humanitarian law
and international human rights law. In addition, an EU Common Position should
stress the importance of transparency, oversight and accountability: unlawful
drone strikes should be followed by proper and independent investigations, with
victims of such strikes having access to effective remedies.
Chapter 3, entitled ‘The Protection of Nationals Abroad: A Return to Old
Practice?’, is written by Onur Güven LL.M. and Dr. Olivier Ribbelink. The use of
armed force by the Russian Federation in actions claimed as protection of Russian
nationals outside Russian Federation territory, most recently in 2014 in Crimea
and East Ukraine, and earlier in 2008 in South Ossetia and Abkhazia, once again
brought the doctrinal discussion around the protection of nationals abroad (PNA)
to the foreground. This chapter discusses different elements that play an impor-
tant role in the debate, such as the relation of PNA with diplomatic protection,
whether the right to exercise diplomatic protection includes the right to use force,
and whether the protection of nationals in danger can be justified as self-defence.
The right to self-defence is addressed in further detail in Chap. 4, the last
chapter of this first part: ‘The “Unwilling or Unable” Test and the Law of Self-
Defence’, written by Dr. Kinga Tibori-Szabó. Recent events related to the rise
of ISIS have catapulted the ‘unwilling or unable’ test to the forefront of the legal
debate concerning the fight against terrorism. The still controversial test offers a
justification for unilateral use of force in self-defence on behalf of a victim state
on the territory of a host state that is unwilling or unable to prevent a non-state
actor located on its soil from carrying out attacks against the victim state. This

authors alike must make considerable effort to clarify its content, delineate its lim-
its and set out its requirements in the context of the law of self-defence.
In the second part of this book, the authors of Chaps. 5–7 address fundamental
rights in the context of European Union law.
Chapter 5 is written by Dr. Wybe Douma and Steffen van der Velde LL.M.
and is entitled ‘Protection of Fundamental Rights in Third Countries Through EU
External Trade Policy: The Cases of Conflict Minerals and Timber’. The chap-
ter assesses the framework within which the EU, since the entry into force of the
Treaty of Lisbon, is assigned to promote a broad range of principles and objectives
in its external relations. The chapter’s focus lies with the advancement of human
rights and environment protection in commercial relations (trade). Through two
case studies, they examine the way the EU integrates human rights and environ-
ment protection objectives in its external actions and explore the coherence and
sustainability of such actions. Through the discussion concerning the legal frame-
work governing the imports of timber and the proposed framework of conflict
minerals, the authors highlight the weaknesses that rest in the regimes’ soft word-
ing and requirements, and the voluntary nature of the instruments regarding miner-
als. Finally, they would wish to see the EU assert its commercial leverage for the
promotion of non-commercial values and objectives set by the Treaty of Lisbon,
such as human rights, in its trade relations.
Chapter 6, entitled ‘Fundamental Rights and Rule of Law Promotion in EU
Enlargement Policy in the Western Balkans’, is written by Dr. Tamara Takács
and Dr. Davor Jancic. This chapter analyses the promotion of the rule of law and
fundamental rights within the accession negotiations of countries of the Western
Balkans. While the EU’s transformative power has been impactful in the previous
accession rounds in Eastern Europe, the conditionality policy that the EU employs
vis-à-vis the aspiring countries has not been without criticism. Restructuring of the
negotiation chapters has brought forward the centrality of the rule of law and cor-
responding policy areas and has led to the modernising of legal systems by these
countries, so as to align them with international standards and EU benchmarks.
This has been the case, the authors note, with respect to access to justice, which is
not only a fundamental right in and of itself but also has significant organisational
and policy implications for the administration of justice. In order to expose the
advantages and disadvantages of the EU’s conditionality policy, the example of the
interplay between the EU and Serbia are presented in the latter’s accession nego-
tiation process by assessing the EU’s Stabilisation and Association Process and the
key legal reforms implemented or planned by Serbia in the sphere of the rule of
law and fundamental rights protection.
Chapter 7, the last chapter of this second part, is written by Prof. Dr. Sacha
Prechal and is entitled ‘The Court of Justice and Effective Judicial Protection:
What Has the Charter Changed?’ This chapter looks at the implications of Article
47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights (CFR) of the European Union and the
status of ‘effective judicial protection’ in the EU legal order after the entry into
force of the Charter. While effective judicial protection emerged as general prin-
ciple of law in the case law of the CJEU, the changes brought by the Charter’s
4 C. Paulussen et al.

express provision are multifold. The principles related to effective judicial protec-
tion appear independently in the Charter, at times with overlapping, other times
leading to gaps. There are also implications with the introduction of Article 52(1)
of the Charter, which for Article 47 CFR means interpretation in harmony with
Article 6 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR), and that the
implicit limitations of Article 6 ECHR may constitute a potential trap of ‘double
limitation’. She finally notes that insofar as Article 47 would not reach the same
scope and level of protection as the general principle of effective judicial protec-
tion, this principle should continue to apply.
The contributions in Part III address fundamental rights from the perspective of
private international law.
Chapter 8 is written by Prof. Dr. Vesna Lazić and is entitled ‘Family Private
International Law Issues before the European Court of Human Rights—Lessons
to Be Learned from Povse v. Austria in Revising the Brussels IIa Regulation and
Its Relevance for Future Abolition of Exequatur in the European Union’. It analy-
ses judgments rendered by the CJEU and the European Court of Human Rights in
the Povse case relating to cross-border child abduction. Both decisions triggered
heated debate amongst family lawyers and private international law specialists
on the issues of fundamental rights and the appropriateness of certain provisions
of the regulation Brussels IIa. Especially in cases involving return orders allega-
tions of violating procedural standards under Article 6, as well as substantive law
issues under Article 8 of the ECHR are likely to arise. This contribution points to
deficiencies in the procedural legal framework of the Regulation Brussels IIa and
offers some suggestions for improving its existing procedural regulatory scheme
relating to child abduction.
In Chap. 9, entitled ‘Some Aspects of the Application and Ascertainment of
Foreign Law in the light of Article 6 of the ECHR’, Steven Stuij LL.M. focuses on
the procedural status of foreign law and how this law should be treated in cross-
border civil matters. Since the court does not have knowledge of foreign law, it
must obtain information on its content, either by using various means of ascertain-
ment or by requiring the interested party to submit a proof of content of foreign
law. When foreign law is to be applied, a number of issues arise in civil procedure
that needs to be taken into account. Thus, the question can arise about an impact
that the requirements of the ECHR, especially those contained in Article 6(1), may
have on the manner in which foreign law is treated. In particular, since the appli-
cability of a foreign law may give rise to a violation of Article 6(1) this provi-
sion affects legal proceedings before national courts, as well. In this contribution,
these potential violations of Article 6(1) and the implications for civil procedure
are addressed. The emphasis lies on a number of issues that may be affected by the
application and ascertainment of foreign law, whereby the relevant case law of the
European Court of Human Rights is also addressed.
Chapter 10, entitled ‘International Commercial Surrogacy Arrangements: The
Interests of the Child as a Concern of Both Human Rights and Private International
Law’, is written by Dr. Richard Blauwhoff and Lisette Frohn LL.M. Currently
there are no legal standards on the international level for cross-border surrogacy.
1 Introduction 5

There is a disparity of approaches in regulating the matter amongst national legal


systems. Consequently, there are numerous legal problems for both private inter-
national law (PIL) and human rights lawyers alike. This contribution addresses the
interaction between PIL and human rights in this area. The authors contend that
a feasible PIL regime could be devised, as it follows from the analysis of recent
case law of the European Court of Human Rights. Considering that there is appar-
ent diversity in regulatory and ethical approaches taken in different jurisdictions,
the aims of such a PIL regime should be modest. Thus, it should for the time
being, be reduced to providing mutual aid between states, while retaining ordre
public and public policy exception. After all, there are human rights law restric-
tions on the regulatory scheme of any PIL instrument concerning cross-border
surrogacy.
The chapters in Part IV, the final part of this book, focus on the interrelations
between sport and fundamental rights.
The first two chapters address the tensions between the benefits of arbitration as
the dispute resolution method of choice, dominated by the Court of Arbitration of
Sport (CAS) in the context of international sports disputes, and safeguarding pro-
fessional athletes’ fundamental right to a fair trial and access to justice.
In Chap. 11, entitled ‘Protecting Athletes’ Right to a Fair Trial Through EU
Competition Law: The Pechstein Case’, Dr. Antoine Duval and Prof. Dr. Ben Van
Rompuy explore the potential of EU competition law as an instrument to indi-
rectly secure an athlete’s right to a fair trial. A recent ruling of a German court
challenged the validity of arbitration clauses in favour of the CAS, which are
commonly used across the sporting world, on the basis of the German competi-
tion rules. The authors examine whether the imposition of forced CAS arbitration
clauses by sports governing bodies may also constitute an exploitative abuse of a
dominant position under EU competition law. As they argue that this answer ulti-
mately depends on the independence of the CAS, the authors scrutinize whether
the CAS fulfils this fundamental requirement.
In Chap. 12, ‘The Enforcement of CAS Arbitral Awards by National Courts
and the Effective Protection of EU Law’, Marco van der Harst LL.M. criticizes the
general lack of case law concerning the private law enforcement of EU (competi-
tion) law with regard to CAS awards. Sports governing bodies may threaten with
disciplinary sanctions if the member were to refuse to implement a CAS award.
While the resulting ‘spontaneous’ compliance with CAS (appeal) awards may be
considered as an advantage over the classical recognition and enforcement pro-
ceedings of foreign awards (‘New York convention route’), Marco van der Harst
argues that such a deliberate attempt to circumvent the enforcement proceedings
of CAS (appeal) awards puts the duty of a national court to ensure the effective
protection of EU (competition) law on the line.
In Chap. 13, the final chapter of this part and this book, ‘Rights and Wrongs of
and About Nationality in Sports Competition’, Prof. James A.R. Nafziger examines
pertinent issues concerning the determination of the nationality of athletes, such as
the growing practice of country swapping and ‘quickie citizenships’ in the interna-
tional sports arena. Normally, the regulations of sports governing bodies, subject
6 C. Paulussen et al.

to the requirements of domestic law, supply the accepted definition of national-


ity. Despite substantial litigation and arbitration of nationality issues, the trend in
international sports law is toward relaxing both durational residency requirements
and the traditional objection to dual nationality. Nafziger argues that the result-
ing opportunities for athletes and athlete-investing countries overshadow concerns
about commodification of acquired athletes or confusion about national identity.
This book covers a variety of substantive topics that will not be readily found
in other books. Indeed, it seems that nowadays, lawyers are increasingly specializ-
ing and focusing on their specific legal fields only. The editors are of the opinion,
however, that by looking over the fence, into areas that one may not be so com-
fortable with, inspiration and potential solutions for fundamental rights problems
may be found. This can for example be related to the issue of access to justice and
the right to a fair trial, which are obviously of essential importance in concretiz-
ing substantive rights, whether in the public or private law sphere. The editors are
proud to realize that one of the main protagonists of the idea that the development
of all these fields of law will contribute to international justice broadly defined
was in fact the name-bearer of our institute: Tobias Michael Carel Asser, the only
Dutch person to receive a Nobel Peace Prize.

Towards an EU Position on Armed Drones
and Targeted Killing?

Christophe Paulussen and Jessica Dorsey

Abstract This chapter gauges the extent to which European Union (EU)
governments share the United States’ position on armed drones and targeted kill-
ing. In doing so, it aims to assist in distilling an EU Common Position on the
use of armed drones and a legal framework for counterterrorism-related uses of
force. The chapter includes the results of a questionnaire sent to the Ministries of
Foreign Affairs, Defense, Justice and intelligence services of all 28 EU Member
States. The authors also parsed other relevant sources that could evince govern-
ments’ official positions (e.g., public statements, policy documents, etc.). In
addition to this, the chapter explores more normative pronouncements from enti-
ties other than states, including international organizations, advisory committees
and commentators, who have articulated how the issue of armed drones and tar-
geted killing should be approached within the European context. In the chapter’s

The authors are researchers in international humanitarian, criminal and human rights law at the
T.M.C. Asser Instituut in The Hague and research fellows at the International Centre for Counter-
Terrorism—The Hague (ICCT). This chapter is based on a more extensive research paper for

for her outstanding assistance in the preparation of the initial paper, as well as the researchers
and analysts from the Open Society European Policy Institute, who provided the authors with
relevant background information. Moreover, they would also like to thank their intern Anna

2.1 Introduction

2.1.1 US Policy on the Use of Armed Drones


and Targeted Killing

On 23 May 2013, United States (US) President Obama, for the very first time,
comprehensively addressed drones1 in a speech, which The New York Times’
Editorial called ‘the most important statement on counterterrorism policy since the

1With the term ‘drones’, the authors mean remotely piloted air systems (RPAS) or unmanned

aerial vehicles (UAV).


2 Towards an EU Position on Armed Drones and Targeted Killing? 11

2001 attacks, a momentous turning point in post-9/11 America’.2 In his speech,


Obama noted that ‘this new technology raises profound questions about who is
targeted and why, about civilian casualties and the risk of creating new enemies,
about the legality of such strikes under U.S. and international law, about accounta-
bility and morality.’3 After stating that drone strikes are ‘effective’4 and ‘have
saved lives’,5 Obama turned to their legality, explaining that these strikes take
place in the context of ‘a just war [against al-Qaida, the Taliban, and their associ-
ated forces], a war waged proportionally, in last resort and in self-defense’.6
As to the question in which cases it is wise or moral to execute those—accord-
ing to the US, legally justified—strikes, Obama explained that in the Afghan
war theater, ‘we will continue to take strikes against high-value al-Qaida targets,
but also against forces that are massing to support attacks on coalition forces’,
whereas
[b]eyond the Afghan theater, we only target al-Qaida and its associated forces, and even
then the use of drones is heavily constrained. America does not take strikes when we have
the ability to capture individual terrorists. Our preference is always to detain, interrogate
and prosecute them. America cannot take strikes wherever we choose. Our actions are
bound by consultations with partners and respect for state sovereignty. America does not
take strikes to punish individuals. We act against terrorists who pose a continuing and
imminent threat to the American people and when there are no other governments capable
of effectively addressing the threat. And before any strike is taken, there must be near cer-
tainty that no civilians will be killed or injured, the highest standard we can set.7

In short, the US sees itself in a just armed conflict against al-Qaida, the Taliban,
and their associated forces, which legally justifies the strikes, and these strikes,
outside of a ‘hot battlefield’ (but still within the US armed conflict paradigm), will
be targeted, as a matter of policy, against al-Qaida and its associated forces when
capture is not feasible, whenever they ‘pose a continuing and imminent threat to
the American people and when there are no other governments capable of effec-
tively addressing the threat’, and when there is ‘near certainty that no civilians will
be killed or injured’.

2.1.2 Initial Reactions to US Policy

Human rights organizations and others cautiously welcomed Obama’s apparent


efforts to bring the secretive US drone policy more into the open, but also
remained vigilant. Greenwald for example noted that even though ‘Obama’s
explicit discussion of the “ultimate” ending of the war on terror can be reasonably
viewed as positive […] it signals nothing about what he actually will do.’8 Indeed,
on 11 December 2013, a wedding convoy in Yemen was hit by a drone strike, kill-
ing 14 persons9 and prompting Kenneth Roth, Executive Director of Human
Rights Watch, to tweet: ‘So much for Obama’s promise that drones wouldn’t be
used unless there’s a “near certainty” of no civilian casualties.’10
It can be argued that whereas the US may have made a (welcome) public move
to bring the US drone policy more out of the shadows, how the US is actually, in
practice, employing armed drones and executing targeted killings still raises seri-
ous international legal questions.11

2.1.3 Possible Consequences of Public Silence


from EU Member States

And while all of this is happening, it remains rather silent on the other side of the
pond.12 Anthony Dworkin, whose seminal paper will be examined in more detail
later in this chapter, remarked in this context:
Although some European officials have made their disagreement with the legal claims
underlying US policies clear in closed-door dialogues and bilateral meetings, EU member

11See Dorsey and Paulussen 2015, pp. 2–4. One example has already been explained elsewhere

(see Paulussen and Tibori-Szabó 2014) and concerns the US’ imminence standard. The current
authors agree with Hernández when he notes: ‘[T]he elasticity of these terms raises serious ques-
tions, not least about the self-judging aspect of “imminence”, but also raises the curious question
as to how something can be simultaneously imminent and continuing. Prior statements (and the
leaked DOJ White Paper of 4 February 2013) suggest that the United States has embraced an
“elongated” concept of imminence that has attracted criticism for its inconsistency with the inter-
national law on anticipatory self-defence.’ (Hernández 2013.)
