The Convention on the Law of the Sea
The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), implements the National Security Strategy, provides legal certainty in the world’s largest maneuver space and preserves essential navigation and overflight rights. More than 150 nations are Party to the Convention– but not the United States, the world’s leading maritime nation.
Becoming a Party to the Law of the Sea Convention will help to ensure the Navy’s ability to move forces on, over, and under the world’s oceans, whenever and wherever needed, and is an important asset in the Global War on Terrorism.
