مشكلات المياه الإقليمية العراقية : دراسة في الجغرافية السياسية

الملخص EN

A State has sovereign rights over its regional or territorial waters; those are the areas of sea and ocean waters.

Iraq has more than 438.

317 km , and has coasts no more than 60 km of its territorial waters, which are small compared to its neighbouring countries (Iran, Kuwait); a region confined between Iran's territorial waters in the east and Kuwait's territorial waters in the west.

Geographical factors, both natural and human, have contributed to problems such as sculpture and barges.

International conventions signed with neighbouring countries, which are unfair agreements, led to the reduction of Iraqi territorial waters and the expansion in neighbouring countries, which affected and will affect Iraq's relations with neighbouring countries and prevent the development of Iraq's territorial waters to connect with the rest of the world.
