The principle that NO STATE may EXERCISE TERRITORIAL JURISDICTION outside its own territory is a corollary of:

1. The S.S. LOTUS case (France v. Turkey), 1927 PCIJ Series A No 10, articulated foundational principles on jurisdiction. 2. The Court held: 'the first and foremost restriction imposed by international law upon a State is that — failing the existence of a permissive rule to the contrary — it may not exercise its power in any form in the territory of another State. In this sense JURISDICTION IS CERTAINLY TERRITORIAL; it cannot be exercised by a State outside its territory except by virtue of a permissive rule derived from international custom or from a convention.' 3. The 'Lotus principle' — what is not forbidden is permitted — is the foundation of state jurisdiction. 4. Exceptions: extraterritorial jurisdiction (nationality, passive personality, protective, universal). 5. Hence option B is correct. _Source: UN Charter 1945 / Vienna Convention on Law of Treaties 1969 / Geneva Conventions 1949 / ICJ Statute / UDHR ICCPR ICESCR — S.S.
