The importance of international organizations in the modern world is rising year by year, enhancing the status of their members and giving them a wide range of opportunities to join diverse groups and communities, which enables them to shape their national interests using their membership in international organizations as an expedient instrument of leverage. If a state has its membership in an international organization restricted or is crossed off the list of members, it will sustain a serious blow to its rights. Restricted membership or outright exclusion is a specific consequence a member state may have to cope with if it has acted in contravention of the principles and regulations which are binding on the members of the given international organization.
