35 violation of the right to judicial protection (supra paras. 69 to 79 and right to property (supra paras. 84 to 91). B) Adoption and application of Decrees No. 25597 and 036-93-EF 107. Moreover, the representative alleged the violation of Article 26 of the Convention as a result of the creation of Decree Law No. 25597 and Supreme Decree No. 036-93-EF as legislative measures that constituted a step backwards, that is, contrary to the progressive realization of the right to social security. In this regard, the Court recalls that in the case at hand, there is no controversy between the parties over whether or not the alleged victims had a right to an adjustable pension or whether such right was adversely affected by the unjustified application of said decrees (supra para. 52). In fact, according to what has been established, the parties to this case agree on the fact that when the 273 pensioners of the CGR ceased to work for such institution, they acquired the right to a severance pension under the system regulated by Decree Law No. 20530 (supra para. 43), right that was afterwards recognized by the courts due to the inapplicability to the case of the unconstitutional Decree Law No. 25597 and Supreme Decree No. 036-93-EF (supra para. 45, 48 and 52). In this sense, insofar as there is no controversy at issue in this regard, this Tribunal shall not rule on the alleged non-compliance with the terms under Article 26 of the Convention as a consequence of the enactment of those norms. VIII REPARATION (APPLICATION OF ARTICLE 63(1) OF THE AMERICAN CONVENTION)91 108. It is a principle of International Law that any violation of an international obligation that has caused damage entails the duty to provide adequate reparation.92 All aspects of this obligation to make reparations are regulated by international law.93 The Court has based its decisions in this regard on Article 63(1) of the American Convention. 109. In accordance with the above considerations on the merits and the violations of the Convention so declared in the preceding chapters, as well as in light of the criteria embodied in the Court’s case law in connection with the nature and scope of the obligation to make reparations,94 the Court shall now address the requests for reparations made by the Commission and the representative, as well as the State’s arguments thereof, in order to adopt the measures required to redress the damage. 91 Article 63(1) of the Convention provides: If the Court finds that there has been a violation of a right or freedom protected by this Convention, the Court shall rule that the injured party be ensured the enjoyment of his right or freedom that was violated. It shall also rule, if appropriate, that the consequences of the measure or situation that constituted the breach of such right or freedom be remedied and that fair compensation be paid to the injured party. 92 Cf.
