“我国的面积有多大?” 1994年11月16日生效的《联合国海洋法公约》,确定了沿海国家200海里专属经营区制度,从而使部分海域不再隶属公海,而逐渐“国土化”。这一占海洋总面积35.8%的海域面积,已被划分归各沿海国家所管辖,成为其国土的一部分,因此,我国可以由先前大约37万平方公里的内水和领海主权海域,扩大到今天300万平方公里的管辖海域。也就是说,我国国上除了近960万平方公里的黄土地外,还拥有相当于陆地面积1/3的300万平方公里的美丽富饶的“蓝色国土”。
“How large is our country?” The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, which came into force on November 16, 1994, established a 200-nautical-mile exclusive operating zone system for coastal countries, which has made part of the seas no longer part of the high seas and gradually “land-based”. This area of sea area, which accounts for 35.8% of the total area of the sea, has been assigned to the jurisdiction of the coastal countries as part of its national territory. Therefore, our country can expand from the previous approximately 370,000 square kilometers of inland waters and territorial waters to the sovereignty of today. 3 million square kilometers of jurisdictional waters. In other words, in addition to nearly 9.6 million square kilometers of yellow land in China, the country also has a beautiful and rich “blue land” equivalent to 3 million square kilometers of land area.
