Caption Description
A charter for the world’s oceans, nine years in the making, was completed at United Nations headquarters today with the adoption of the Convention on the law of the Sea. The Convention deals with almost every human use of the oceans – navigation and over-flight, resource exploration and exploitation, conservation and pollution, fishing and shipping. In approving the text, the Third UN Conference on the Law of the Sea carried out an assignment given it by the General Assembly in 1973, but it failed to meet its goal of a consensus. Instead, in a vote requested by the United States, it adopted the text by 130 in favour to 4 against, with 17 abstentions.
