摘要
南海仲裁案结果已经出炉。在实体问题裁决部分,仲裁庭一方面认为南海九段线已随着《联合国海洋法公约》的生效而归于消灭,否定我国在南海享有历史性权利的法律基础;另一方面,有悖于国际实践并曲解《联合国海洋法公约》第121条文本本身的字面含义,认定在南沙群岛中没有任何一个高潮地物属于有完全资格的岛屿。从理论层面和实践考察探究起来,岩礁的含义及其条款"维持人类居住或自身经济生活"属于类概念,因此可以随着人类科学技术和经济社会发展对其法律属性采用演进解释。为了限制当事国任意采取扩礁加固行为,应以《联合国海洋法公约》生效日作为关键日期。针对此次仲裁庭裁决既有违时际法又不符合岩礁演进解释理论,中国对其所谓实体裁决理应不予承认。
The Tribunal rendered the South China Sea Arbitration Award on the merits of the Philippine g claims. In its award of 12 July 2016, the Tribunal declared that there was no legal basis for China to claim historic rights to resources within the sea areas falling within the nine - dash line. At the same time, the Tribunal concluded that all of the high - tide features in the Nansha islands were legally ＂recks＂ that did not generate an exclusive economic zone or continental shelf. In fact, after a comprehensive research on a ＂general rule＂ established by the International Court of justice, WTO, etc. , ＂ rock＂ belongs to generic terms, therefore it should be interpreted by evolutive interpretation. However, availability date of United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea should deemed to be the critical date, which may curb the parties＇aetian of expansion so as to transform rock to island. The Tribunalg Award not only violated inter - temporal law, but also did not conform to evolutive interpretation, thus China can not recognize its validity of Award on the Merits.
