Summary
Refers to the letter from Iraq concerning the question of the delimitation of the continental shelf in the Persian Gulf (S/2000/821); states that Iraq's assertion that "any delimitation of the continental shelf in this region must be made by agreement among all the States" clearly lacks legal basis and regards the reference to article 83 of the 1982 UN Convention on the Law of the Sea in Iraq's letter as a baseless justification.
