description The purpose of the article is to analyse the relationship between the European rules on international jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of foreign on one hand and the private international law treaties concluded between the Baltic States and the third states on the other. These treaties, often called the ‘mutual assistance treaties’, do not contain any clear rules on their scope of application. Thus, in order to ascertain the relationship between the two types of instruments the article also seeks to determine the scope of the rules contained in the private international law treaties, which deal with the questions of international jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments. The author has chosen the private international law treaties concluded by the Republic of Estonia as examples to illustrate the problem.
