In International Law. To deprive a minister of his functions; to supersede him. Where a mission to a foreign country is terminated by a formal letter of recall, the minister usually delivers a copy thereof to the minister or secretary of foreign affairs, obtains an audience of the sovereign or chief executive, and delivers or exhibits the original of his recall. If he is recalled at the request of the government to which he is accredited, he would neither ask nor receive an audience of leave. If recalled on account of a misunderstanding between the two governments, it must depend upon circumstances whether a formal letter of recall is to be sent to him or whether he may quit the resshall grant him an audience of leave; 1 Hall. Int. L. 365. See Letter of Recall; Minister. As to the recall of officials and of judicial decisions, see Initiative, Referendum and Recall.
