“克罗地亚/斯洛文尼亚仲裁案”中的海洋划界问题

The Maritime Delimitation Issues in the Arbitration between Croatia and Slovenia

克罗地亚/斯洛文尼亚仲裁案"法庭基于当事各方在独立前的官方行为划分了它们在皮兰湾内的内水边界,并适用"等距离/特殊情况规则"划分了它们彼此间的领海边界。另外,仲裁庭本着公允及善良原则裁决了斯洛文尼亚与公海的连接问题。仲裁庭在克罗地亚领海内划出了一个"连接区"并规定了以交通自由为核心的特殊制度。但仲裁庭对法律的解释和适用存在一些缺陷。

The Tribunal in the Arbitration between Croatia and Slovenia delimited the internal waters within the Bay of Piran between the Parties on the basis of their official activities before their independence,and delimited the boundary of their territorial seas by applying the＂equidistance/special circumstances＂rule.Furthermore,the Tribunal decided ex aequo et bono the Slovenia＇s junction to the high Seas.The Tribunal delimited a Junction Area within the Croatia＇s territorial sea and determined a special regime focused on the freedom of communication.However,there are some defects in the interpretation or application of laws by the Tribunal.
