Declaration made upon ratification:
"The Declaration of the Republic of Azerbaijan contains unsubstantiated and baseless allegations against the Republic of Armenia and distorts the essence of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict which was triggered and sustained by the use of force by Azerbaijan against peaceful demands of the people of Nagorno-Karabakh for human rights and self-determination."
Declaration made upon ratification:
"The Republic of Guinea-Bissau does not recognize the competence of the Committee under articles 6 and 7 to conduct inquiries into serious and systematic violations of the Convention (Article 8)."
Declaration made upon ratification:
"Turkey declares that [its] ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities neither amounts to any form of recognition of the Greek Cypriot Administration's pretention to represent the defunct 'Republic of Cyprus' as party to that Protocol, nor should it imply any obligation on the part of Turkey to enter into any dealing with the so-called Republic of Cyprus within the framework of the said Protocol."
Objection made on February 11, 2016:
With regard to the declaration made by Turkey upon ratification:
"The Republic of Cyprus has examined the declaration deposited by the Republic of Turkey upon ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (New York, 13 December 2006) on 26 March 2015, limiting the implementation of the provisions of the Convention and the Protocol, by excluding the Republic of Cyprus from the application of the Protocol at reference by the Republic of Turkey. The content of the declaration makes it tantamount in its essence to a reservation. Such a reservation is contrary to the object and purpose of the Convention and its Protocol, as it prevents the realization of the cooperation between States Parties foreseen by the Convention and its Protocol. In addition, such a declaration / reservation also relies on the principle of reciprocity, which is incompatible with human rights' obligations assumed through this Convention. The legal reasoning, cited above, renders Turkey's declaration unacceptable, as the declaration under reference contravenes the letter and the spirit of the Convention and its Protocol. The Republic of Cyprus, therefore, objects to the aforesaid declaration made by the Republic of Turkey and considers the declaration null and void. This objection shall not preclude the entry into force of the Convention between the Republic of Cyprus and the Republic of Turkey, without the Republic of Turkey benefiting from its declaration / reservation."
Objection with regard to the declaration made by Turkey upon ratification: (16 March 2016)
"The Government of Austria has examined the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey upon ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities adopted on 13 December 2006. It welcomes the ratification of the Optional Protocol by Turkey as a significant step for the promotion of the rights of persons with disabilities. However, as a member state of the European Union, Austria opposes the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey which describes another member state, the Republic of Cyprus, as a defunct entity."
关于萨尔瓦多在签署时作出且在批准时确认的保留意见:(2008年9月26日)
“奥地利政府审查了萨尔瓦多政府对《残疾人权利公约》及[及其任择议定书]发表的保留意见。
根据该保留意见,萨尔瓦多认为该国仅在公约规定不妨碍或违反《萨尔瓦多共和国宪法》所载的任何一项规则、原则和准则的规定,尤其是其所列举的原则的情况下才成为公约缔约方。由于该国未作进一步澄清,因此保留意见并未明确指出萨尔瓦多减损公约规定的程度。该保留意见措辞笼统含糊,对萨尔瓦多作为公约缔约方应承担的义务的程度产生了质疑,因此不符合国际法的规定。
奥地利政府反对萨尔瓦多共和国政府对《残疾人权利公约》及其任择议定书所作的保留意见。
但是,该保留意见并不妨碍奥地利与萨尔瓦多之间的公约完全生效。”

Objection with regard to the declaration made by Turkey upon ratification: (16 March 2016)
"… The Government of the Hellenic Republic has examined the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey upon ratification, on 26 March 2015, of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities.
The Republic of Turkey declares that its ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities should not imply any obligation on the part of Turkey to enter into any dealing with the Republic of Cyprus within the framework of the said Protocol.
In [the] view of the Government of the Hellenic Republic, the above declaration in fact amounts to a reservation, as it purports to exclude the application of the Protocol in Turkey's relations with the Republic of Cyprus. Such a reservation is incompatible with the principle that inter-State reciprocity has no place in the context of human rights treaties, which concern the endowment of individuals with rights. It is, therefore, contrary to the object and purpose of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and its Optional Protocol.
The Government of the Hellenic Republic recalls that, according to Article 14 paragraph 1 of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, reservations incompatible with the object and purpose of this Protocol shall not be permitted.
For the above reasons, the Government of the Hellenic Republic objects to the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey upon ratification of the said Protocol.
This objection shall not preclude the entry into force of the Protocol between the Hellenic Republic and the Republic of Turkey…"
2010年1月28日,秘书长收到了德国政府发来的关于萨尔瓦多共和国在签署时作出且在批准时确认的声明的下列通函:
“德意志联邦共和国仔细审查了上述保留意见。
德意志联邦共和国认为,一般提及准则制度(如保留国的宪法或法令)而不明确内容的保留意见不能说明该国同意受条约义务约束的程度。
此外,这些准则可能也会有所更改。因此,萨尔瓦多共和国的保留意见不够明确,不足以确定对协议施加的限制。
因此,德意志联邦共和国认为,该保留意见与公约和议定书的目标和宗旨不符。德意志联邦共和国希望回顾到,根据公约第46条第1款和议定书第14条第1款的规定,与公约的目标和宗旨不符的保留意见不得提出。
因此,德意志联邦共和国反对上述保留意见。这种保留意见并不妨碍德意志联邦共和国与萨尔瓦多共和国之间的公约和议定书生效。”

"The Government of the Portuguese Republic has examined the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey upon ratification of the Optional Protocol to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities adopted on 13 December 2006.
It welcomes the ratification of the Optional Protocol by the Republic of Turkey since this is a significant step for the promotion of human rights, particularly the rights of those persons with disabilities.
Nevertheless, the Portuguese Republic, as a European Union Member State, opposes the declaration made by the Republic of Turkey since it describes another Member State, the Republic of Cyprus, as a defunct entity."
