...these instances the nation that lost the case abided by the international court's ruling. Under the U.N. Charter, member nations are obligated to comply with the court's decisions-and there is no appeal from them. The Charter also provides that if a nation "fails to perform" its obligations under a World Court decision, the other nation involved can complain to the Security Council, which may "decide upon measures to be taken to give effect to the judgment."
