United States views on international law [1] in relation to China's Claimed Baselines of the Territorial Sea of the Senkaku Islands: The United States requests that the Government of China review its current practice on baselines, explain its justification under international law when defining its maritime claims, and make appropriate modifications to bring these claims into accordance with international law as reflected in the Law of the Sea Convention. The United States is ready to discuss this and other related issues with China in order to maintain consistent dialogue on law of the sea issues.
