How do the international conventions on the law of sea apply to the caspian, aral, and dead sea?

Question

please discuss each case in detail

Answer 1

I DO BELIVE THAT  THER IS NOT QUESTION (or questions)  concerning the above mentioned "SEA"  becouse, really , means geographically,  they are non SEA !!!!  BUT "only"  big  or large LAKEs.

Making  reference   to the "nuovissimo Atlante Geografico Mondiale" made by Touring Club Italiano  printed on 2000 year, the ARAL  IS DEFINED AS lake  AND NOT SEA.

THE  other definition are according to an ancian view of "sea" due to the fact that thayr water is salty (especially the dead sea the most "salty water" on all the planet!!!)  but  in terms  of  navigation point of view,  a sea is a place in communication with  allthe other  lands of the planets:  from  Sea Port XYZ  is possible reach  another continent, or make the "around  the  GLOBE  trip" !!!

This  is  not possible starting from ANY  PORT  OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED "SEA".

Of course this is my strongly sincere opinion.

Answer 2

Why would there be "international" laws governing land locked seas...?

Answer 3

Law of the seas does not apply to inland seas.

Answer 4

A sea is defined as a body of salt water, so they are most certainly defined as seas.  Borders are demarcated across seas just as they are on land - though navigation is a different game.  The US Presence in Iran up to 1979 was largely due to the border in the Caspian Sea.

You do your own homework..... try google

Answer 6

all these seas are internal seas and were divided long ago by following the land border dragging it down to the other coast unless the sea itself is the border.  

as in dead sea - the border just follow fr north to south.

aral sea - borders already decided and split between uzbek/kazakhs.  there are no issues with these 2 seas.

the compass markings r adhered to.  

with collapse of USSR and emergence of Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Azerbaijan as independent states, ownership and development rights in the caspian is being debated. currently, there is no agreed-upon convention that delineates the littoral states' ownership of the Sea's resources or their development rights. iran / kazakh had some naval issues on oil exploration etc.  stalemate now!

all 3 r shrinking - so the land borders will come into being in a few more decades!
