The deficiencies of the Permanent Court of Arbitration are substantial... and only in 1903 was the first agreement arrived at for anticipatory reference of disputes to arbitration. This was the Treaty between Great Britain and France which sealed the Entente Cordiale. It contained, however, a reservation which was severely restrictive of the obligation to submit. This was the reservation that the "vital interests, ""independence" or "honour" of the contracting parties must not be "affected. " 3, record 2, English, - vital%20interests

Les intérêts vitaux sont souvent invoqués par l'État pour déroger par voie de réserve à l'obligation conventionnelle d'accepter le recours à l'arbitrage ou au règlement judiciaire; quand on parle de «réserve des intérêts vitaux», il s'agit le plus souvent de la sécurité de l'État en question, de sa prospérité économique, du bien-être de sa population. 3, record 2, French, - int%C3%A9r%C3%AAts%20vitaux
