Аңдатпа
This study examines the legal dilemmas arising from diplomatic relations with unrecognized states and governments. Despite the proliferation of de facto political entities that exercise effective control over defined territories, many remain outside the formal framework of international recognition, creating significant legal ambiguities. The study employs a qualitative doctrinal research methodology, analysing international legal instruments, state practice, scholarly literature, and case studies from regions including Kosovo, Taiwan, Palestine, and Somaliland. The findings reveal that the absence of formal recognition does not preclude practical engagement, yet it generates substantial uncertainty regarding treaty obligations, diplomatic immunity, and accountability. The research identifies critical gaps in international legal frameworks and proposes recommendations for developing more coherent and adaptive approaches to unrecognized entities. The study concludes that pragmatic engagement, guided by clear legal principles, is essential to maintaining international stability and protecting human rights in contested territories.
