Abstract

The Strait of Hormuz has great significance for the world economy as an oil chokepoint. Yet in recent years, international navigation through the Strait of Hormuz has been repeatedly hampered and subject to discriminatory navigational restrictions and attacks. Such measures have been mostly aimed at oil tankers. This article examines the maritime incidents that occurred in the Strait of Hormuz in 2019: mine attacks against oil tankers and the arrest of an oil tanker by the Iranian armed forces. This study approaches these incidents from the perspectives of the law of the sea and from jus ad bellum.

霍尔木兹海峡的法律制度和对油轮的袭击：海洋法和武力使用法的观点

摘要

霍尔木兹海峡作为石油咽喉要道，对世界经济意义重大。然而近年来，通过霍尔木兹海峡的国际航行一再受到阻碍，并受到歧视性航行限制和攻击。这些措施主要针对油轮。本文考察了 2019 年霍尔木兹海峡发生的海上事件：对油轮的水雷袭击和伊朗武装部队扣押一艘油轮。本研究从海洋法和诉诸战争权的角度处理这些事件。
