While the resources available for fulfilling human rights obligations may not be as plentiful in small states as in large states, states may adopt such policies to the maximum extent given their available resources. This section has attempted to explore if states also have obligations to respect, protect, and fulfil the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights outside their borders. From this analysis it is clear that no straightforward extraterritorial obligations of states to respect, protect and fulfil human rights emerge. The least controversial of them are extraterritorial obligations to respect the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights. Such state obligations develop from international and national levels. The extraterritorial obligations to protect and fulfil, which impose positive obligations on states, require states to exercise diligent monitoring and allocate funding, are yet to be developed from their embryonic forms. More specifically, state obligations to protect the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights exist at least where territorial states exercise authority or effective control over private actors. However, effective obligations should be established in the future at domestic and international levels to examine alleged extraterritorial violations of economic and social rights. Nonetheless, states currently are already obliged not to extraterritorially infringe on the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights. V. CONCLUSIONS The enjoyment of economic and social rights is crucial for survival and wellbeing of an individual. States have both existing territorial obligations, and emerging extraterritorial obligations to respect, protect and fulfil. They should not infringe upon the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights, not only when requiring states to repay their public debt, but also before loan is granted. The overall aim of this article was to examine the territorial and extraterritorial obligations of states to observe economic and social rights. While it can be concluded that territorial states have obligations to respect, protect and fulfil the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights, it is more controversial to submit that those obligations exists also extraterritorially on the basis of a duty to cooperate. Nonetheless, extraterritorial obligations to respect the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights presently obliges states to violate them outside their territory. States must be accountable for the failure to meet their obligations under economic and social rights. If Eastern and Southern European states are unable to provide even the reasonable minimum core of economic and social rights, extraterritorial obligations of more developed, often Northern, European States to respect the reasonable minimum core arises. Europe is first and foremost a community based on the fundamental rights of all of its members. Territorial states must
