In this article, the problems corollary to the claims based on human rights violations and brought before investment tribunals have been discussed. Particularly, the article focuses on the right to water as an indispensable counterpart of the right to life. Investment tribunals tend to more analyze claims based on international investment treaties and decide them in favor of investors, whereas human rights claims stemming from other international treaties are to some extent ignored. The article stresses the inappropriateness of such an approach and attempts to suggest efficient solutions.
