No, there are certain things that international law says are guaranteed to you, that international law says your country is obliged to provide to you.
You need the additional premise "if international law says a country is obliged to provide something, then that country is obliged to provide it". I see no reason to believe that premise. It doesn't seem to be true either as a statement about how countries should behave or about how countries actually behave.
