-Algeria's exclusive economic zone has created an area of overlap with the waters of the Balearic Islands, namely the Cabrera Island Nature Reserve, which is understood as such that Algeria does not give much importance to the rigid notion of the middle line, and in turn, the location of the Balearic Islands cannot have an impact on maritime delimitation between the two states, which fully reflects the position of Algeria, which it has always defended during the negotiations of the Third Conference on the Law of the Sea, in particular with regard to the legal concept of the island and the rights that It can be given by the Convention on Maritime Extensions, mainly the right to an exclusive economic zone in accordance with Part 5 of the 1982 Convention
