  • What rights do coastal states have over their territorial waters?

    -Coastal states have sovereign rights over the airspace above their territorial waters and the seabed beneath, allowing them to regulate navigation, enforce laws, and manage natural resources within this zone.

  • What is 'innocent passage' in the context of territorial waters?

    -'Innocent passage' refers to the right of foreign vessels to pass through a coastal state's territorial waters as long as they do not threaten the peace, order, or security of that state.

  • What factors have contributed to the variations in the claimed width of territorial waters among different countries?

    -Variations in claimed widths are primarily due to differing national interests, historical practices, and economic considerations regarding maritime resources.

  • How does international practice regarding territorial waters reflect the complexities of maritime law?

    -International practice reflects complexities due to the lack of uniformity in how different countries define and regulate their territorial waters, leading to potential disputes and differing interpretations of legal frameworks.

  • What are some of the consequences of the varying practices in determining territorial waters?

    -Consequences include potential conflicts between nations, challenges in resource management, and complications in maritime navigation and law enforcement.
