	A persistent threat to Guyana's territorial integrity
		Two options were available to the administration of Prime Minister LFS Burnham to secure the territorial integrity of the young state: the diplomatic and the military.
		When the new British Ambassador in Caracas was advised of the discussions, he warned the Foreign Office in August 1965 that the proposal of joint-development of the claimed area which was relevant during his predecessor's time (Sir D Busk's) would not satisfy Venezuela unless the terms gave her something "near de facto sovereignty".
		For the continuing official acts showing the New River Triangle as Suriname's territory, one such map was reported to be circulated during the first Caricom meeting convened in Suriname last May, and the continuing problems with the Ferry Project confirm a pattern of calculated foreign policy rather than of isolated and random acts.

	Territorial Integrity of Quebec & Sovereignty - Part 1
		Whatever its present territorial limits may be, and they are legally correct, the question remains the same: whether Quebec is entitled under international law to retain these limits in the event of its independence or whether independence would - or could - ipso facto entail an alteration of these limits.
		This is but a consequence of territorial sovereignty which can and must be dissociated from the issue of legislative or regulatory power: land can be the property of a province but come under the federal jurisdiction, or conversely, belong to the Federation but be subject to provincial regulation.
		Furthermore, as has already been stated before the Commission, the legal system of ownership falls within the civil law while the allocation of territory among the provinces is a question of constitutional law: "This is not a question of land or ownership but of territory and sovereignty"(15).

	Karabakh and Chechnya. Legal aspects.
		The "oppression theory" is presently the biggest threat to the territorial integrity of Russian Federation as the facts of atrocities and gross human suffering were widely reported during the conflict 1994-96 and is being reported now. Casualties in the conflict of 1994-96 are estimated to be at least 80.000 (34).
		The actions on the territory of the Chechen Republic grossly violated and continue to violate the norms of international law, and in particular, the June 8, 1977 Protocol II to the Geneva Conventions of August 12, 1949 which relates to the protection of victims of non-international armed conflicts (36).
		Besides the "oppression theory" cannot be a threat to territorial integrity of Azerbaijan either as it is Azerbaijan to face occupation and ethnic cleansing in 20% of its territory.

		The struggle of the oppressed peoples of the world for their right to self-determination has often been overshadowed by the notion of the so called 'territorial integrity' and the principles of non-interference in 'internal affair' of a sovereign state.
		The territorial integrity of a state is recognised by international law.
		Furthermore, the concept of the 'territorial integrity' of Indonesia itself stems from the era of colonialism to prevent artificial boundaries of conquered territories from becoming separate independent states.

		Therefore, the principle of territorial integrity would be applied to a right of self-determination with a different and lesser meaning than the right of self-determination of non-Indigenous peoples; this would not only be discriminatory but also undemocratic.
		Nevertheless, a law was adopted in December 2000 that applies the principle of "territorial integrity of Québec" to potentially all matters within the province, regardless of whether it relates to secession or non-secession issues.
		The principle of "territorial integrity" should not be applied to the human rights of Indigenous peoples in a manner that is wholly different from that of all other peoples.

	Self Determination - Sovereignty,Territorial Integrity, and the Right to Secession
		Because self-determination encompasses so many issues— including individual and minority rights, regional autonomy, government repression, territorial integrity, state sovereignty, and claims to independence, to name but a few—the most difficult task in planning such a meeting was to determine which aspects of the issue would be addressed.
		The resulting focus on territorial integrity and the right to secession should not suggest that the other aspects are not important; rather, it was an attempt to set limits on a topic that can easily become extremely complicated and broad.
		Timothy Sisk of the United States Institute of Peace suggested that one option for resolving the dilemma of self-determination versus territorial integrity is the promotion of a negotiated settlement— to the extent that it is possible.

	DRC Opposition Group wants Territorial Integrity
		The Committee of Resistance, Territorial Integrity and a State of Rights (CRID), a Paris-based resistance movement of the Democratic Republic of Congo has reiterated its commitment towards assisting the Mai Mai to peacefully ensure that the territorial integrity of the country is respected in keeping with the norms of international conventions.
		According to him, CRID supported the Mai Mai who were exercising the legitimate ‘’right of a people to resist against oppression and occupation’’ of their country by rebel forces bent on turning the Congolese people into servants of neighbouring countries.
		Ngaba said the Mai Mai’s major concern was to ensure that the DRC regained its integrity as a sovereign state and was in no way interested in the destabilization of neighbouring states.

		The Israeli-occupied territories is a slightly different situation in that the sovereignty of the area was in dispute prior to the Israeli occupation.
		Such a major change in legal principle cannot be introduced by way of an ambiguous subordinate clause, especially when the principle of territorial integrity has always been accepted and proclaimed as a core principle of international law, and is indeed placed before the qualifying clause in the provision in question.

	Legal Opinion on Guatemala's Territorial Claim to Belize (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Guatemala's claim to the Territory of Belize had first been formulated in 1939 on the grounds that article VII of the 1859 Treaty, by which Guatemala had recognized the then-existing boundaries of Belize, had not been fulfilled.
		It would be irresponsible to attempt to establish a new State with uncertain frontiers and territory subject to negotiation and, therefore, to continual revision by various means.
		That is to say, it is the position of the international community (apart from Guatemala) that the territory of Belize encompasses "all" of the territory that was administered by the United Kingdom in Belize before Belize attained independence.

	The Hindu : 'Death knell to Manipur's territorial integrity'
		I. Gujral's assurance that the ceasefire between the Government and the NSCN(I-M) would be confined to Nagaland and Manipur's territorial integrity would be protected, the leaders said the June 14 extension was against the assurance.
		While we are not opposed to the ceasefire in Nagaland, we know that a ceasefire in Naga-inhabited areas of Manipur is a springboard for the disintegration of Manipur, a death knell for the territorial integrity of Manipur,'' the memorandum said.
		Pointing out that the agreed ground rules for the ceasefire contemplated the establishment of NSCN ``designated camps'' without defining any territorial limits, and movement of NSCN armed cadres from one camp to another, they said it would have an adverse bearing on the territorial integrity of Manipur.
