Azerbaijan
11-02-2004
The Republic of Azerbaijan declares that it will be unable to guarantee compliance with the provisions of the Convention in its territories occupied by the Republic of Armenia until these territories are liberated from that occupation.
Spain
16-12-2009
If this Convention were to be extended by the United Kingdom to Gibraltar, Spain would
like to make the following declaration:
1. Gibraltar is a non-autonomous territory whose international relations come under
the responsibility of the United Kingdom and which is subject to a decolonisation
process in accordance with the relevant decisions and resolutions of the General Assembly
of the United Nations.
2. The authorities of Gibraltar have a local character and exercise exclusively internal
competences which have their origin and their foundation in a distribution and attribution
of competences performed by the United Kingdom in compliance with its internal legislation,
in its capacity as sovereign State on which the mentioned non-autonomous territory
depends.
3. As a result, the eventual participation of the Gibraltarian authorities in the
application of this Convention will be understood as carried out exclusively as part
of the internal competences of Gibraltar and cannot be considered to modify in any
way what was established in the two previous paragraphs.
Sweden

Sweden makes the explanatory statement that, in Sweden's view, a ratification of the Convention does not mean that its membership of the Group of States against Corruption (GRECO) cannot be reviewed if reasons to do so arise in the future.
