Summary: The sentence in commentary refers to the acquisition of territories, one of the classical issues of International Law, and the maritime delimitation of the exclusive economic zone and the continental shelf regarding the territorial and maritime dispute between Nicaragua and Colombia in the Caribbean Sea. The commentary deals with two of the three subjects of the sentence, which are, the islands and low-tide elevations, their legal definition, the possibility of appropriation of the islands and cays, the territorial rights that they generate in the determination of the territorial sea, the continental shelf and the exclusive economic zone, and the examination of territorial titles, specially, based on the principle of uti possidetis juris and the adjudication. Finally it is analyzed the significance of the jurisprudence taking into account its application in the decision.
