The
Persian Gulf presents several TERRITORIAL DISPUTES in which several
international agents claim sovereign rights for different reasons over the same
area.
Regionally, with a direct or indirect implication, we have Saudi Arabia,
Iran, Bahrain, Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Iraq.
In
addition to the regional claimants, there are many other international actors.
The previous posts introduced the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia and
China.
The
solution seems to require a mutually exclusive relation amongst them because it
is assumed that the sovereignty over the disputes territories can be granted to
only one of them. Indeed, sovereignty is often regarded as an absolute concept
(that is to say, exclusive, and not shareable).
NOTE: The last posts this
year include a recap of all we have covered so far by including daily the
relevant links.
