I see double standards here.
There's difference of interpretation of Territorial Water amongst NATO as well. While EU including Germany base it on IMOs definition of 12 Nautical Miles but the US doesn't respect that and says it to be 3 NM. Has Germany or EU or IMO ever challenged US on that stance?
