Türkiye

Turkey is not a party and has objected to UNCLOS from the outset due to a number of serious shortcomings. Turkey believes that the said Convention does not reflect the customary international law of the sea as a whole. Accordingly, Turkey dissociates itself from the references made in the 'International Convention on the Control of Harmful Anti-fouling Systems on Ships, 2001' to the international instruments that it is not Party to. These references therefore should not be interpreted as a change in the legal position of Turkey with regard to the said instruments.
