“冲之鸟”的法律地位及其对中日划界的影响

Legal Status of "Okinotori" and Its Impact on the East China Sea Continental Shelf

依据1982年《联合国海洋法公约》、国家实践以及国际司法与仲裁实践,分析日本"冲之鸟"的国际法律地位,认为"冲之鸟"只能赋予12海里的领海,不应该享有200海里专属经济区。根据"冲之鸟"位于我国东海大陆架上这一特殊地理位置,指出"冲之鸟"的法律地位对我国东海大陆架具有重大影响。

Based on the 1982 United Nations Convention on Law of the Sea, state practice and international judicial and arbitration practice, Japan＇s ＂Okinotori＂ international legal status is analyzed. It is declared that ＂Okinotori＂ can only be given a 12 - mile territorial sea, but not be allowed 200 nautical miles of exclusive economic zone. In accordance with the fact that ＂Okinotori＂ is located in the East China Sea continental shelf, the particular location of Okinotori＇ s legal status of East China Sea continental shelf has a significant impact.
