Summary/Abstract: In the contemporary international law, the principle of not using armed force is stipulated in the UNO Charter and developed as aggression by the Declaration concerning the definition of aggression of the General Assembly of UNO of 1974, as well as by the final Act of Helsinki of 1975, which decides that the states will abstain in their mutual relations and, in general, in their international relations, from using force or from threatening to use force, either against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, or in any other way which is incompatible with the purposes of the United Nations.
