Objection made on September 22, 1988, by the Government of Israel with regard to a declaration made by Bahrain upon accession:
"The Government of the State of Israel has noted that the instrument of accession by Bahrain to the above-mentioned Convention contains a declaration in respect of Israel. In the view of the Government of the State of Israel, such declaration, which is explicitly of a political character, is incompatible with the purposes and objectives of this Convention and cannot in any way affect whatever obligations are binding upon Bahrain under general international law or under particular Conventions.
The Government of the State of Israel will, in so far as concerns the substance of the matter, adopt towards the State of Bahrain an attitude of complete reciprocity."
Objection made on June 23, 1980, by the Government of Israel with regard to a reservation made by Jordan upon ratification:
"The Government of Israel has noted the political character of the statement made by the Government of Jordan. In the view of the Government of Israel, this Convention is not the proper place for making such political pronouncements. Moreover, the said declaration cannot in any way affect whatever obligations are binding upon Jordan under general international law or under particular conventions. Insofar as concerns the substance of the matter, the Government of Israel will adopt towards the Government of Jordan an attitude of complete reciprocity."
