a) The Olympic Charter, as a basic instrument of a constitutional nature, sets forth and recalls the Fundamental Principles and essential values of Olympism.

b) The Olympic Charter also serves as statutes^{4 for the International Olympic Committee.}

c) In addition, the Olympic Charter defines the main reciprocal rights and obligations of the three main constituents^{5 of the Olympic Movement, namely the International Olympic Committee, the International Federations6 and the National Olympic Committees, as well as the Organising Committees for the Olympic Games, all of which are required to comply with the Olympic Charter.}
