Abstract
This article was prepared to formulate a strategy for formulating the drafting of exclusion
clauses in bilateral investment treaties and legal policies that are in accordance with national
security without violating international law. In its preparation, doctrinal legal research with
legal objects is used which is conceptualized as a statutory rule based on the doctrine of
positivism (normative juridical) schools. In the Discussion, it was found that Host Country has
several options in implementing policies that put forward the national interest such as, asserting
rights in agreements in good faith, including exceptions expressly, establishing definitions
appropriately in agreements, mentioning special clause categories in agreements, conducting
evaluations in a reasonable manner and self-judging. However, of the seven options already
mentioned, self-judging is the most profitable option for host countries in implementing policies
that orientate national interests. The self-judging clause is the choice of host country for two
reasons. First, the clause gives the state discretion to unilaterally opt-out of international
obligations and secondly, the evaluation of the elements for opt-out is not set out completely
objectively from an external point of view, but only from the point of view of the state concerned.
