US vs Iran at Sea? Maritime Laws, UNCLOS & High Seas Treaty Explained for UPSC

Описание: In this video, we explain UNCLOS (United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea) and how international maritime laws decide who owns the sea and ocean resources. This topic is extremely important for UPSC aspirants, especially for Geography, Environment and Current Affairs.

The video covers the concept of maritime zones such as Territorial Sea, Contiguous Zone, Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), Continental Shelf and the High Seas, which are defined under UNCLOS. These zones determine how far a country’s rights extend into the ocean and how global navigation and resource exploitation are regulated.

We also discuss the High Seas Treaty, an international agreement aimed at protecting marine biodiversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction and enabling the creation of marine protected areas in international waters.

If you are preparing for UPSC Prelims or Mains, understanding UNCLOS and maritime law is crucial for topics related to international conventions, ocean governance, and global commons.

This lecture will help you clearly understand who controls the oceans and how maritime boundaries are defined under international law.
