He signed the Politis-Kalfov Protocol settling a dispute between Greece and Bulgaria, promoted a disarmament resolution before the League of Nations Disarmament Commission, and worked alongside the Soviet commissar Maxim Litvinov on the 1933 Convention on the Definition of Aggression. His scholarly works include Les Emprunts d'Etat en Droit International of 1894 and later writings on the limitation of state sovereignty, and he also served as a member of the International Olympic Committee from 1930 to 1933.
