Is there any hierarchy or priority among the various methods of peaceful settlement of disputes?

Yes, all the political methods (e.g. negotiation, mediation, inquiry, conciliation) should be exhausted prior to resorting to legal methods

Legal methods prevail over the political methods, since they are binding upon the parties

There is no hierarchy among these methods and the choice belongs to the disputing States

It is a matter of an impartial third party to decide which method will have priority over the other

There is no hierarchy among these methods and the choice belongs to the disputing States.
