Introduction to Freedom of the Seas
Freedom of the Seas, in international law, right of all nations to navigate, fly over, fish, and conduct scientific investigations freely on the high seas, without molestation by any nation in time of peace. This right, however, is subject to the rights of belligerents in time of war to search neutral vessels for contraband of war, non-neutral service, and break of blockade of enemy ports.” (1)
