Abstract

Dünyada
her an çatışma yaşanabilecek en önemli bölgelerden biri olan Güney Çin Denizi’nde
Çin’in artan faaliyetleri, başta ABD olmak üzere büyük güçleri
endişelendirmektedir. Bölgenin stratejik konumu nedeniyle, Hindistan gibi
ülkelerin Çin’i dengelemek amacıyla soruna dâhil edilmeye çalışmasıyla sorun
giderek karmaşık bir hal almaktadır. Bu bağlamda makalede, Güney Çin Denizi
krizinin gelişimine ve tarafların hak iddialarına uluslararası hukuk
çerçevesinde değinilecek, ABD ve Hindistan’ın bölgedeki rolü ile birlikte
geleceğe dair olası sonuçlar değerlendirilecektir.

Assessment of South China Sea Crisis within the Framework of International Law

Abstract

China’s increasing activity in the South China Sea -
one of the most important hotspots in the World- concerns great powers, mainly
the US. Due to the strategic significance of the region, the problem becomes
more complex as countries such as India become more involved to the problem to counterbalance
China. In this context, development of the South China Sea crisis and
territorial claims of the parties will be analyzed within the framework of
international law in this article and the possible consequences of the role of
India and the US will be assessed.

Keywords

South China Sea, India, the US, International Law, China.
