Abstract |
: |
The borders in the Arabian Gulf have special consideration that is different
from those similar to them in any other place in the world, owing to the unfinding of any
constant boundaries on maps in such region before the twentieth century . However, the
1913 Treaty between Turkey and Britain was the first twentieth to delimit the borders,
whereby, the political boundaries being defined between each region that was under the
influence of each state in the eastern part of the Arabian Peninsula. As far as Bahraini and
Qatari boundary conflict is concerned, the causes of it are originated in the existence of
petroleum and not being rooted in the idea of constituting modern state, in general formation
after being settled in the thinking of the inhabitants of that region the concept of state that
has clear boundaries, as well as, territorial competences, that means sovereignity in its
modern concept, in conformity with the Rules of Public International Law. We have to
admit that the existence of Britain in the region had helped in inhibiting the inflammation of
this problem but it is impossible to assume that this phenomenon will be constant to the end.
Therefore, we have seen endeavors being sustained to settle this conflict but the efforts have
encountered with difficulties, part of them return to the geographical nature of the region,
and part of them back to the Sahara nature of the region, as well as, the habits of its
inhabitants. Despite all these considerations, it is possible to settle the conflict between the
two states, either by adjudication of the International Court of Justice, or International
Arbitration, or by direct negotiation between the two states, in order to find political solution
in conformity with the rules of International Law of the Seas which will give both states
securities to ascertain harmonization of their mutual interests as opposite states in the
coastal area that is limited in extent of the breadth of the territorial water of 12 nautical
miles, after the application of the new general Rules of International Law of the Seas, in
conformity with the UN Convention of 1982 . |
