territory of that state. lt is a known fact that a state’s territory is conslituted of land,
sea and air. space. The coastal state enjoys full administratlve, political and juristic
sovereignty over its territory.
One of the most important territorial parts of a coastal state is its internal ,
waters adjoining its territorial sea. Besides ıt has limited sovereignty over contiguous
zone, exclusive economic zone, continental shelf and high seas.
Internal waters are those waters which li e landward of. the baseline from
which the territorial sea and other maritime zones are measured. Thus, internal
waters of a maritime character mostly comprise bays, estuaries and ports, and
waters enclosed by straight baselines. The outer boundaries of internal waters
constitute the inner boundaries of the territorial sea.
The territorial sea is the adjacent sea zone, starting from the baselines of
outer boundaries of internal waters, and extending up to 12 miles which is rec"ognised
by international law.
The re is a significant need for delimilalion of m aritime boundaries in order to
avoid disputes and uncertainties over the right to exercise sovereignty, sovereign
rights or jurisdiction and to exploit resources.
As regards to the lslamic law, regulations which · are established by
internationallaw are not totally rejected. On the contrary, all Muslim countries, except
Turkey, have ratified international treaties <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={Sivas Cumhuriyet University}
