Re: Drug interceptions on the high seas

SVLamorocha,

Yes I might be mixing up the Iranian and Libyan embassies. But the sovereignty issue is so. Unless two governments really collide, an embassy is exclusive jurisdiction of its flag.

Re: Drug interceptions on the high seas

This subject came up in a thread regarding "best country to flag" your boat.

Re: Drug interceptions on the high seas

Yes, but the inclusion of the word customary implies that there is no binding legal force. It is still a pick and choose that probably would not hold up in any strong legal challenge. The fact is...
