"Delimitation of maritime sectors in the waters is one of the major disputes between the coastal states. Therefore, we must take into account the special geographical situation of the countries."
According to Zarif, a legal regime should be designed to ensure the interests of all the littoral states."
The key, he said, is security issues. "It is a recognized key aspect, that is, the use of the sea for peaceful purposes, the abandonment of the arms race, the guarantee of non-use of military force in relations, and the joint struggle against the threats are the elements that will ensure peace and stability in the region," he said.
The Iranian MFA also pointed out that there should be ‘sensitive and attentive approach to the use of the Caspian seabed for the transport of pollutants to the world markets.’ -02D-
