Delimitation Agreements

Delimitation agreements are formal arrangements between countries that define and agree upon the boundaries or borders between their territories, usually on land or maritime areas. These agreements aim to prevent conflicts by clearly establishing which side of the border each country controls. They involve negotiations and legal procedures to delineate the border's exact location, ensuring mutual understanding and respect. Such agreements are essential for maintaining peaceful relations, facilitating cooperation, and effectively managing resources shared across borders, like fisheries or oil reserves.
