This implies war ought not be proclaimed until one party must choose the option to pronounce battle, to safeguard its region and privileges, the point of war. Notwithstanding, we can likewise contend that the conflict can never be the final hotel, considering there is generally a method for attempting to keep away from it, similar to assents or conciliation, showing Vittola's hypothesis is imperfect.

This is additionally upheld by Frowe's case that the pioneer needs to address individuals' inclinations, under authentic power, which joins on to the fourth condition: Public statement of war. Concurred with many, there should be an authority declaration on a statement of war (Frowe (2011), Page 59-60&63).
