Explanation:

- The sentence is examining the relationship between past agreements and their justification in terms of the balance of good.

- Option 1: "and" is a conjunction used to connect words of the same part of speech, clauses, or sentences that are to be taken jointly. It suggests a continuation without contrast or condition.

- Option 2: "until" indicates a point in time up to which an action is valid, suggesting a condition that will change at a specific time.

- Option 3: "but" is a conjunction used to introduce a phrase or clause contrasting with what has already been mentioned. It indicates an exception or contrast.

- Option 4: "unless" introduces a conditional clause, suggesting something might only be valid in certain circumstances.

The sentence seems to contrast past agreements with their justification, making the use of "but" appropriate.

- Correct Answer: Option 3 - but
