أحكام القانون الدولي للملاحة في المضائق الدولية : دراسة تطبيقية على مضيق هرمز

Abstract EN

International attention has turned to the straits and their importance for the movement of trade and international communication, as a tool for economic control, especially in periods of wars and conflicts between countries in the world.

The international legalization of the straits has been linked after the emergence of their importance and role in international communication and economic control.

Therefore, international laws on the seas were introduced that aim to subject the international straits used in international navigation to special governing agreements known as the principle of freedom of passage, meaning that states allow foreign ships to pass free through the strait, regardless of the nature of the passage.

Therefore, the United Nations introduced the Law of the Sea of 1982 to end the controversy over the traffic regime in international straits, which led to the emergence of criticism of it as a result of the countries bordering the straits as a result of fear for their safety and security, and despite the fact that many countries ratified the agreement, it remains questionable by the states that reject this law and have not ratified the convention, so the problem of the study lies in the explanation of the ambiguity and confusion surrounding this law.
