vs 35 The predecessor of the principle of 'preemption'
In detail, the boundaries of the territorial sea area, the statistics of US assets on the Manua Islands, the compensation for the relocation of residents of the Manua Islands, the reluctance of the residents of the Manua Islands to relocate, what the United States and Chen Dong do, what nationality these residents take, and finally, the United States has to stipulate what Chen Dong cannot do on the Manua Islands, and cannot build military bases.
Regarding the sovereign deal, the two parties must not be sloppy.
Chen Dong invited a bunch of lawyers to read the treaty, and the American lawyer beat it up!!
After more than a dozen repeated consultations between the two sides, the treaty was revised, and finally, the final treaty was knocked.
Chen Dong also strives for the best interests.
Chen Dong obtained the sovereignty of the Manua Islands, the islands of Tau, Olossega and Ofu, the sovereignty of territorial waters and the sovereignty of the exclusive economic zone, with a land area of more than 60 square kilometers, of which 39 square kilometers of Tau, and the two islands of Olossega and Ofu are almost connected, adding up to about 20 square kilometers, and there are some small islands and reefs.
The two roads, a small port, a small airport, and the relocation of the island's residents, the houses and some buildings on the island also belong to Chen Dong.
Of course, it must not be counted like this, Chen Dong suffered a loss.
Can the importance of the Manua Islands be compared with that of Lucky Island, a strategic point in the ocean, ocean aviation, and shipping transit station?
However, from another point of view, Chen Dong did not suffer a big loss, 40 square kilometers of Lucky Island for more than 60 square kilometers of Manua Islands, the territorial waters of Lucky Island, the area of the exclusive economic zone is less than half of the Manua Islands.
Chen Dong suffered a small loss, looking for the United States to win some benefits, the United States can compensate Chen Dong only some funds, funds are also Chen Dong is in urgent need, the construction of the island is too expensive, Chen Dong's little money, can not build a villa on the island, mainly because it is too far from the mainland, the transportation cost is more expensive than building materials.
The United States made up Chen Dong 132 million US dollars, which is an approximate figure calculated by the lawyers and accountants of both sides, anyway, Chen Dong does not know how they calculated it.
Chen Dong received $132 million in compensation, and he definitely didn't have to pay taxes, so just like that, the island exchange deal was signed.
The island change was smooth.
Actually, it did not cause a little wave in the United States, Americans saw on the news that the government and government used the Manua Islands to exchange with Chen Dong for Lucky Islands, and most of the Americans were the first to react, where are the Manua Islands, at least 40% of Americans do not know, they have a colony called American Samoa, which belongs to the United States unincorporated and unincorporated territory, at least more than 70% of Americans do not know the Manua Islands, and have never heard of it.
Many Americans looked out the map and widened their eyes before they found a few small islands in the south-central Pacific Ocean.
The government and government used these islands in exchange for lucky islands, and the Americans said OK, no problem.
Usually, the Americans have to protest against things that are bigger than mung beans, and this time, the Americans also protested, using the dispensable, located in the Pacific Ocean, where there is a weak explosion of the Manua Islands for the strategic point of the ocean, which is obviously earned by the United States.
Most of the media and public opinion in the United States also support the government's exchange of Manua Islands for Lucky Islands, which has obviously been earned, although compared with Lucky Islands, Manuan Islands has exchanged 60 square kilometers for 40 square kilometers, 3,700 square kilometers of territorial sea sovereignty for 1,700 square kilometers of territorial sea sovereignty, and a larger area of exclusive economic zone sovereignty for a smaller area of exclusive economic zone, which seems to be a big loss for the United States.
However, from another point of view, Lucky Island is the ocean to rush, the location in the Indian Ocean is extremely important, remodeling, building a naval base, an air base, a submarine base on it is no problem, and, as an aviation, shipping transit station, Lucky Island is also enough to undertake these functions.
The U.S. has earned it, for sure.
Of course, there are also Americans who pick leeks in their eggs, as well as the media opposition, and the government has lost territory, which is a fact, although it has obtained the strategic point of the ocean of Lucky Island, which is the first territory lost since the United States became independent.
However, before the government and government came out to explain these opposing remarks, a large number of people immediately popularized the knowledge to them, colonies, non-incorporated unincorporated territories, the concept of organized territories, the 50 states of the United States are organized territories, and a large number of islands written by the United States through the "Island Dung Island Act" belong to the islands within the United States legislation.
Speaking of the Island Dung Island Act, it's interesting.
"At any time a citizen of the United States finds island droppings on any island or reef that is not under the lawful jurisdiction of any other government or occupied by a citizen of another country, it shall be deemed to belong to the United States at the discretion of the President."
This is another version of the principle of 'pre-emption' of islands in the international high seas.
In addition to the American Samoa and Hawaiian Islands, other small islands that make up the continental United States, such as Johnston Atoll, where the United States is widely known for conducting nuclear tests, and Midway, which is too famous, a famous battlefield in World War II, and a strategic point, was basically obtained through the Guano Island Act.
The principle of 'preemption' was not the first thing Chen Dong played.
A long time ago, the United States played the principle of 'preemptive acquisition' and acquired a large number of unclaimed islands in the Pacific Ocean.
Of course, exchanging islands with Chen Dong, the US government and government have made a loss-making deal, and the Americans who are so proud that their noses are about to burst the sky will definitely not do it, and they will not scold Chen Dong, nor will they blame Chen Dong, they will scold their own government, and the US government and government will use it to scold, and if there is nothing to do, they will scold if they are unhappy, and there is no problem in throwing shoes at the president.
As for the $132 million that the US administration and government have made up for Chen Dong, as well as the two highways built by the government and government on the Manua Islands, as well as a small airport and a small port, which have also been merged with the islands and owned by Chen Dong, the Americans have directly ignored them.
After Chen Dong exchanged islands with the United States.
The United States immediately legislated that Lucky Island is a territory of the United States and belongs to the United States' overseas consolidated territory.
Several warships departing from Diego Garcia's U.S. Navy Base went around Lucky Island and declared their sovereignty.
