Peru to Take Chilean Border Issue to the ICJ
April 9th, 2007 at 10:22am
The president of Peru, Alan GarcÃa, announced over the weekend that the country will turn to the International Court of Justice in the Hague to resolve its maritime border controversy with Chile. Peru says that this border has never been legally set, while Chile sees as binding a pair of treaties signed by the two countries in the 1950s. President GarcÃa’s announcement followed a highly charged protest near the coastal border organized by nationalist groups last Thursday.
