Abstract

As a new system established under UNCLOS 1982,the coastal State has sovereign rights and the right to manage the natural resources in its exclusive economic zone(EEZ).Other states have freedoms of navigation and overflight which are related to military use,but such freedoms are not traditional freedom of high seas,the areas above are not international aviation areas.Therefore,all states should regard the sovereignty and safety of the coastal State in their military activities,and use it only for peaceful aim.The range and extent of military use of EEZ are different by coastal State and other states.The military use of EEZ must obey the principles of peaceful use,non-armed force,coastal State's priority,the right of self-defense and right of hot pursuit should not exceed necessary limit,so as to reflect the aim of UNCLOS and make the EEZs areas of Peaceful coorperation.
