The link between sovereignty and international law found its legal embodiment in the principle of sovereign equality of states. The principle of sovereign equality of states is a complex principle, in two ways: both of its components can be considered independent principles. The combination of these elements gave rise to an international legal phenomenon - the principle of sovereign equality of states. It assumes that any state must fully fulfil its international obligations. Within the framework of this principle of sovereign equality, sovereignty itself has regained its definition in the relations of international law. These relations, as a rule, are established between the subjects of international law, i.e. states, but they can also be between states and organizations or only between intergovernmental organizations. The essence of this principle is the rule, according to which the maintenance of international law and order is possible and can be ensured only with full respect for the legal equality of the participants. This means that each state must respect the sovereignty of the other participants in the system, that is, their right on their own territory to exercise legislative, executive, administrative and judicial power without any interference from other states, as well as to exercise independently external politics.
