Third state obligations in no way decrease or obliterate the domestic state's responsibility under the ICESCR. Third state obligations are always complementary-though not necessarily secondary-to domestic state obligations. The obligations to respect and to protect apply simultaneously to the domestic state and any third state. The obligation to fulfil, however, can be argued to be only a secondary obligation for third states, which is only triggered in case the domestic state fails to fulfil a certain right.

In López Burgos v. Uruguay, the Human Rights Committee (HRC) opted for a disjunctive reading of the phrase within its territory and subject to its jurisdiction, as if the undertaking to respect and to ensure human rights covered borh persons within the territory of a state and persons subject to a state's jurisdiction (iff HRC, López Burgos v. Uruguay, UN Doc. CCPR/C/13/D/52/1979, para. 12.3). This reading was recently confirmed in die Committee's General Comment No. 31 (General Comment No. 31, Nature of the General Legal Obligation Imposed on States Parties to the Covenant, UN Doc. CCPR/C/21/Rev.1/Add.13, para. 10).
