自然资源部发布最新报告：美式“航行自由”缺乏国际法基础

Core Viewpoint - The report evaluates the legality of the U.S. "freedom of navigation" claims and practices in relation to international treaties and general international law, highlighting that these claims lack a legal basis and distort the interpretation and development of international law [1] Group 1: U.S. Claims and Practices - The report examines the U.S. legal stance and practices regarding freedom of navigation, focusing on issues such as innocent passage of warships, rescue entry, transit passage, archipelagic sea lanes, "international waters," legal status of islands, straight baselines, outer archipelagic baselines, military activities in exclusive economic zones, air defense identification zones, and historic waters [1] - It summarizes the characteristics and impacts of the U.S. "freedom of navigation" claims, which include numerous self-created concepts and standards that contradict international law and the practices of many countries [1] Group 2: Implications of U.S. Practices - The report argues that the U.S. "freedom of navigation" serves American national interests and geopolitical strategies, potentially threatening regional peace and stability while disrupting international maritime order [1] - It reflects a strong tendency towards illegality, irrationality, and double standards in U.S. practices, continuing the logic of "gunboat diplomacy" and using military force to pressure other nations [1]
