Cet aspect de l'indépendance s'applique aux rapports entre l'État et les Organisations internationales. Il se traduit par la formule couramment admise à savoir, qu'aucune de celles-ci, même l'O.N.U., ne constitue un «super-État». La C.I.J. se contente de souligner que cette dernière Organisation est placée «en face de ses membres» et qu'elle a seulement «le devoir de rappeler à ceux-ci certaines obligations».
