Abstract

Konumu ve hakları bakımından uluslararası hukukta önemli bir yer edinen bireyin korunması, devletlerin öncelikle yerine getirmeleri gereken bir yükümlülük olarak kabul edilmektedir. Bu bağlamda uluslararası hukukun devleti ön planda tutan bazı kavramları da tartışılmaktadır. Bunlardan birisi de diplomatik korumadır. Avrupa Birliği Hukukunda da bireyin yabancı devlet ülkesinde korunması hususu, ilgili düzenlemelerde yer almakta ve “diplomatik koruma ve konsolosluk koruması” şeklinde ifade edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada da özel olarak “diplomatik” kelimesi üzerinde durulmakta ve Avrupa Birliği Yurttaşları açısından diplomatik korumanın uluslararası hukukta bahsedilen olağan anlamından farklı bir içeriğe sahip olup olmadığı irdelenmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler: Avrupa Birliği Yurttaşlığı, Diplomatik Koruma, Konsolosluk Koruması, Konsolosluk Yardımı

and it is stated as “diplomatic and consular protection”. In this study especially
the word “diplomatic” is discussed and whether the concept of “diplomatic
protection” has a different concept in European Union Law or not instead of
its ordinary meaning in international law, is considered.
