| Summary: | Abstract International law did not establish a single regulation on marine areas, but instead made a distinction between the legal system relating to maritime regions, which are part of the territory of the State, subject to its territorial sovereignty, between the areas of the State and the regions on which the State has sovereign rights, so this study aimed to identify the international legal system of the marine regions and its applications in the United Arab Emirates under the rules of international law of the sea and national legislation. On 17 October 1993, UAE issued a ruling on the designation of maritime zones. It is the first law which deals with the classification and regulation of maritime areas. It also defines the legal nature of each region, the rights and powers of the State, and the duties of other States in each of these areas. As for the problem of the study, it focuses on the multiplicity of the legal organization of maritime affairs, which leads to their complexity and overlapping. This is due to dissimilarity and variation of the subject of organization, which led to the existence of scattered legislation dealing with maritime regulation within the branches of UAE domestic law. The study uses descriptive methods and approaches that are consistent with its nature, to describe the problem of the study, its dimensions, and problem analyze under the rules of international law of the sea and local legislation. These are the inductive method; and the deductive approach. The study concludes that, despite the global agreement reached by the international community in the 1982 Convention regarding the delineation of borders, some countries rejected this agreement, including the United States of America. The UAE also seeks to resolve its border problems with neighboring countries through bilateral treaties, such as the agreements between the UAE, Oman, and Saudi Arabia. Among the most important recommendations of the study is the need to pursue the common objectives between the UAE and its neighboring countries; to encourage productive international cooperation, be it bilateral or collective regional or global, such as the establishment of joint, economic, commercial projects to exploit oil wealth at joint oil fields; and the necessity to abide by the border maps, and agreements that have been reached to solve disputes and border problems between the UAE and neighboring countries. |
