Abstract:
Authors have taken up the problem of application of
International Humanitarian Law in legality aspect of threat of use
or use of nuclear weapon in armed conflicts. Analyzing issues
related to the use of nuclear weapons in accordance with the law,
it can be concluded that the mere use of nuclear weapons is
prohibited due to the violation of many laws. However, it is not
obvious whether nuclear weapons can be used for self-defense in
accordance with international law. It should be pointed out that
the International Court of Justice has given an opinion on the use
of nuclear weapons in armed conflicts. It is certain that the
effects of nuclear weapons are in violation of provisions related
to environmental protection, the principle of proportionality, the
principle of humanitarianism or the principle of differentiation,
due to the scale of its usage effect.
