Does Australia own the waters in Antarctica?
Le 29 mar 2008 par bryonbenjamin ()
No-one owns any of the land or waters in Antarctica. All territorial claims are in abeyance while the Antarctic Treaty operates. The Treaty recognises no claims. Australia has claimed a big chunk of Antarctica and maintains stations to support its claims but is a keen member of the Antarctic Treaty nations and is not pushing any claims.
Australia does own the waters around its Antarctic Islands - Macquarie, Heard and Macdonald - as these are part of Australia.
The Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary has been declared and is supported by all Antarctic Treaty nations except Japan. Japan hunts for whales in the Sanctuary.
