Abstract
Broadening protection of human rights leads currently to doubts about the role of instrument of diplomatic protection. This concept is according to many obsolete and for purpose of human rights protection unsuitable and redundant tool.
The aim of this article is thus to prove the relationship between diplomatic protection and human rights protection. With this goal in mind it is also important that conditions to exercise diplomatic protection do not constitute denial of justice, particularly in a case of human rights.
Analysing the condition of citizenship this contribution affirms that traditional rules of international law are overcome in this regard by more flexible approach which provides further raison d'être to diplomatic protection.
