關于呼吁世界各國遵守國際法、

反對非法使用武力的聲明

在過去幾個月，在拉美和中東地區發生了嚴重的非法使用武力情勢。我們嚴厲譴責美國、以色列的不法行為，認為有必要重申遵守《聯合國憲章》和國際法，切實維護國際和平與安全。

《聯合國憲章》是戰后國際秩序的法律基石。《憲章》第2條第4款規定了關于禁止使用武力的國際法基本原則：“各會員國在其國際關系上不得使用威脅或武力，或以與聯合國宗旨不符之任何其他方法，侵害任何會員國或國家之領土完整或政治獨立。”“領土完整”就是“領土的不可侵犯”。《憲章》明文規定的禁止使用武力原則的例外只有兩種情況：聯合國安理會根據《憲章》第七章授權的行動和行使《憲章》第51條提及的國家固有自衛權。

2026年1月3日，美國悍然對委內瑞拉發動軍事打擊，強行控制委內瑞拉總統馬杜羅及其夫人并將兩人帶至美國。美國此次軍事行動沒有合法理由，嚴重違反禁止使用武力原則，嚴重侵犯委內瑞拉的領土主權，也嚴重違反國際法關于國家元首人身不可侵犯與豁免的規則，粗暴踐踏國際法和國際關系基本準則，應當盡快糾正。

2026年2月28日，美國和以色列開始對伊朗發動大規模軍事打擊，至今中東地區的武裝沖突還未結束。美以聯合發動的空襲轟炸了包括伊朗首都德黑蘭在內的多個城市和地方，構成國際法禁止的武力使用，并構成對伊朗的武裝攻擊和侵略行為，也違反國際法關于國家元首人身不可侵犯規則。美以對伊朗使用武力沒有國際法依據，是嚴重的不法行為，應當立刻停止。攻擊伊朗平民和包括學校、醫院、能源設施等在內的民用物體的行為，還嚴重違反國際人道法。

我們呼吁，世界各國，尤其是在國際事務中具有特殊責任和影響力的大國，應遵守國際法，踐行國際法治，和平解決國際爭端。我們呼吁，世界各國堅決反對在國際關系中非法使用武力，維護世界和平與安全，推動構建人類命運共同體。

Statement of Chinese Society of International Law on Upholding International Law and Opposing Illegal Use of Force

In recent months, there have been grave instances of illegal use of force in Latin America and the Middle East. We solemnly condemn the illegal acts of the United States and Israel, and believe that it is necessary to reaffirm the imperative of observing the Charter of the United Nations (the Charter) and international law in order to effectively safeguard international peace and security.

The Charter constitutes the legal cornerstone of the post-World War II international order. Article 2(4) of the Charter establishes the fundamental principle under international law of the prohibition of the use of force: “All Members shall refrain in their international relations from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any state, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.” “Territorial integrity” means “the inviolability of territory.” The Charter expressly provides for only two exceptions to this prohibition of the use of force: actions authorized by the United Nations Security Council under Chapter VII of the Charter and the exercise of the inherent right of self-defense of States referred to in Article 51 of the Charter.

On January 3, 2026, the United States blatantly launched a military strike against Venezuela, forcibly seized President Nicolás Maduro, head of State of Venezuela, and his wife, and removed them to the United States. There is no lawful justification for this U.S. military operation. It seriously violates the principle prohibiting the use of force, severely infringes on Venezuela’s territorial sovereignty, and grossly breaches the rule under international law regarding the personal inviolability and immunity of heads of State. It has brutally trampled on international law and the basic norms of international relations and must be rectified as soon as possible.

On February 28, 2026, the United States and Israel initiated large-scale military strikes against Iran. The armed conflict in the Middle East has continued to this date. The joint airstrikes by the United States and Israel have targeted multiple cities and regions including the capital Tehran. These actions constitute the use of force prohibited by international law, amount to an armed attack against and invasion of Iran, and violate the rule under international law regarding the personal inviolability of heads of State. The use of force by the United States and Israel against Iran finds no basis in international law; it is a serious illegal act and must cease immediately. Furthermore, the attacks on Iranian civilians and civilian objects, including schools, hospitals and energy facilities, also seriously violate international humanitarian law.

We call on all States, especially major States with special responsibilities and influence in international affairs, to abide by international law, practice international rule of law, and settle international disputes peacefully. We call on all States to resolutely oppose the illegal use of force in international relations, maintain international peace and security, and promote the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.
