That is certainly true with respect to a number of bilateral treaties.

Modern practice regarding the length of treaty suspension no longer focuses on the distinction between bilateral and multilateral treaties.

The Vienna Convention provides the following rules on the interpretation of treaties, both bilateral and multilateral

The practice of States relating to the consular provisions in bilateral treaties is not very coherent.

The Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties provides the following rules on the interpretation of treaties, both bilateral and multilateral

There seems in theory no reason why such treaties should not stand on the same footing as bilateral treaties between the belligerents.

Thus, although following both World Wars multilateral treaties were still viewed as more resilient than bilateral ones, an increased resilience of bilateral treaties was acknowledged.

It would be helpful if LDCs could have further bilateral and multilateral treaties.

A similar question arises when the distinction between bilateral and multilateral treaties is given prominence.

(a) The irrebuttable presumption, based upon State practice, that bilateral treaties are terminated, subject to express provisions indicating the contrary

In the opinion of the Special Rapporteur, the principle is not in fact a general principle, being formulated exclusively in relation to bilateral treaties.

Professors Daillier and Pellet adopt the position that the peace treaties of 1919 and 1947 confirm the principle of abrogation in the case of bilateral treaties.

The EU also needs common initiatives to replace piece meal bilateral agreements on tax evasion and tax havens, which undermine the goal of a fair society.

For example, C. W. Jenks argued that i t is now generally admitted that war has not the same effect on multilateral legislative treaties as upon bilateral contractual ones. Similarly, Robert Tucker argued that

In considering the effects of war on treaties it is useful, and probably necessary, to distinguish between those treaties having a large number of states other than the belligerents as parties and bilateral treaties having as signatories only the belligerents.

In discussing the effect of armed conflict on treaties, commentators have attempted to distinguish between bilateral treaties, as more susceptible to suspension or abrogation, and multilateral treaties, as more resilient.

Rather than adopting the former multilateral bilateral distinction, several modern commentaries on the effect of armed conflict on treaties adopt a more nuanced approach, looking to the actual subject matter of the treaty rather than the number of parties.

Provisions on minorities contained in such treaties and other bilateral arrangements should be based on universal and regional instruments relating to equality, non discrimination and minority rights.

28 Bilateral investment treaties which include bonds in the definition of investment can lead to claims against debtors for expropriation in the context of debt restructuring.

Fitzmaurice, who was part of the Foreign Office legal department, discusses the way in which the revival or otherwise of bilateral treaties was dealt with, which involved a method of notification, Fitzmaurice then continues

The most significant recent development is that exchange of information provisions in tax treaties should override bank secrecy and other confidentiality laws in the transmitting State.

McIntyre notes that the same view had been proposed three decades earlier in J. C. Bluntschli, Das Moderne Völkerrecht der Civiliserten Staaten 538, 402 (1878). The same year Politis made his report, Turkey declared war on Italy and proclaimed all bilateral treaties terminated.

Ethiopia and Eritrea went to war in 1998 after Ethiopia accused Eritrea of invading the border town of Badme at least 80,000 people were reported to have died in this war, which intensified in May 2000 when Ethiopian troops entered western Eritrea. The United States of America reported that it suspended the Peace Corps programme in Eritrea in 1998 and Ethiopia in 1999 as a result of this conflict, thus potentially having an effect on the bilateral treaties governing those programmes.
