The right of diplomatic protection serves certain purposes which are essential in the international legal community.
Diplomatic protection is a means to safeguard various important benefits for individuals which arise from traditional treaties or from a minimum standard of justice.
Diplomatic protection can be particularly useful in facilitating the movement of people, goods, capitals and services across states boundaries and thus in expanding personal freedom.
Diplomatic protection also promotes international economic relations. The right of states to protect their nationals can serve as a warning signal to states inclined to ignore their treaty or customary law obligations favoring individuals.
So, the prerequistes for the rights of diplomatic protection, especially the local remedy rules and various legal limitations on means of protection help to prevent an overly frequent use and abuses by powerful states.
