Abstract

The international responsibility of states is a key concept in international law that refers to how states are accountable for unlawful or wrongful acts and non-prohibited actions. Given the complexities of international relations and the profound impacts of state actions on global security and welfare, this issue holds special significance. The aim of this article is to closely examine the international responsibility of states concerning wrongful acts as well as lawful and non-prohibited actions that may harm other states and individuals. This article analyzes the criteria for identifying wrongful and non-prohibited acts of states and explores the methods for determining international responsibility. The research question is how to identify and determine the responsibility of states regarding wrongful and non-prohibited acts, and what methods exist for compensating for incurred damages. The findings of this research indicate that even when actions are lawful, states must be accountable for their consequences. Additionally, the role of international institutions in supervising these responsibilities and determining compensation in cases of violations of international obligations is crucial. This research utilizes a descriptive-analytical method and contributes to a better understanding of the international responsibilities of states.
