Balgarianovinite.com Caretaker Minister of Environment and Water Julian Popov said that the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea is to be ratified soon by Bulgaria. Popov was speaking during the ceremony welcoming the Bulgarian naval research vessel Sv. Sv. Kiril i Metodii (RSV 421) in Varna on Thursday
Popov said that preparations for the document have been completed, and it is now to be forwarded to the National Assembly for ratification. He added that the convention applies to regulating all marine and maritime activities in those parts of the world’s oceans that lie outside national jurisdictions. “This is of great importance not only from a transport or military perspective, but also from an academic viewpoint,” the Minister said.
Popov added that the oceans and the way that they are managed are also crucial in the fight against climate change.
The Convention establishes conditions for meetings of the state parties, which will discuss the development of the rules and laws governing these waters in the future, Popov said.
The minister extended special congratulations to the crew of the RSV 421, emphasizing that the ship is proof that Bulgaria can have a global presence.
