ABSTRACT
The convention regarding the Black Sea protection against pollution was signed in 1992, in Bucharest by the representatives of the riparian states: Bulgaria, Georgia, Romania, Russia, Turkey and Ukraine. It is a conventional overview in which the legal status is established by the Convention and the special arrangements for the protection of the marine environment against particular forms of pollution are provided by the additional protocols.
Worthy of note is the complex and dynamic nature of the conventional overview, namely the possibility of its permanent enrichment with the regulations demanded by the actual realities.
In the spirit of “community of interest” and “the regional heritage”, and the truth that “the pollution results from land-based resources from other European countries”, the convention is open for accession by any Black Sea non-riparian state “interested in achieving the aims of this Convention and which will contribute substantialy at the protection and conservation of the Black Sea marine environment”.
Considering that almost one third from the European shore areas have connections with the Black Sea, these areas including major parts from 17 countries, 13 towns and about 160 millions of people, that here flow the major European rivers and that the Black Sea is the only connection of several European countries with the world’s oceans, via the Mediterranean Sea, results in a community of interests for the Black Sea from European non-riparian states.
Thus the regulation demanded by the actual realities with which the Convention can be enriched, transpose precisely in the adheration of the non-riparian states to the Convention, which is necessary both for the joint-effort of protecting the Black Sea against the pollution, but also the community of interests of the new countries adhering to the Convention.
