Maldives is a long archipelago.

The trivial solution is to create really large protected areas like the Chagos Archipelago.

The objective of the note is to recognize Venezuela's sovereignty over the Los Monjes archipelago.

They were the world's largest marine protected area up until last week when the Chagos Archipelago was declared.

We found our second Blue Zone on the other side of the planet, about 800 miles south of Tokyo, on the archipelago of Okinawa.

This sea is an archipelago belonging to Kiribati that spans across the equator and it has several uninhabited, unfished, pristine islands and a few inhabited islands.

We're getting closer to one percent now, thanks to the protections of the Chagos Archipelago, and only a fraction of this is fully protected from fishing.

On the basis of this past history, the Government of Colombia hereby declares that it does not oppose the sovereignty of the United States of Venezuela over the Los Monjes archipelago, and that therefore it does not oppose nor does it wish to make any claim concerning the exercise of such sovereignty or any act by Venezuela asserting control over the archipelago in question.

1. In 1856, the Government of the United States of Venezuela notified the Government of New Granada, through the diplomatic channel, of its claim to the aforementioned archipelago.

First, environmental treaties including express terms providing for their application during armed conflict will continue to apply, such as the small class of treaties protecting specific areas, including the Antarctic, the Spitsbergen archipelago and outer space.

Once again, Colombia did not object to this decree or to any of the jurisdictional claims repeatedly made by the Government of the United States of Venezuela to the aforementioned archipelago, which have been recorded in official Venezuelan publications.

The rooms in this building are like islands in an archipelago, and what that means is that mechanical engineers are like eco engineers, and they have the ability to structure biomes in this building the way that they want to.

Antarctica, though a huge continental archipelago, measuring 24 million square kilometers, and covered in ice that is 4 5 kilometers thick, is far from any inhabited continent. The Arctic is only water, with the North Pole itself 4,200 meters under the surface.

The examples were a fairly broad and representative sample of unilateral acts ranging from a diplomatic note on recognition of one State's sovereignty over an archipelago to statements by the authorities of a United Nations host country about tax exemptions and other privileges and immunities.

After decades of autocracy, this vast archipelago of a country just concluded a presidential election that has solidified its transition to democracy. India, proud of its long standing democracy and fresh from its own elections, shares a border with Myanmar and can also assist efforts there.

Providing reproductive health services to rural areas remained difficult, especially given that the population was spread over an archipelago and progress was impeded by cultural factors such as gender inequality, early initiation to sex, taboos relating to sexuality and the drift of the population towards urban centres.

It should also be noted that the talks held by the parties on the topic of delimitation of marine and undersea areas in the Gulf of Venezuela which therefore covers the very important matter of sovereignty over the Los Monjes archipelago are, as agreed by the parties themselves, confidential.

3. On 22 August 1871, the Provisional President of the United States of Venezuela issued a decree establishing jurisdiction over a territory known as Colón', which was subject to a special regime under the authority of the federal executive branch this territory included a number of islands, including the Los Monjes archipelago.

As these islands begin to form an archipelago, a legal class emerges, supported by the clients who need them. And on the day that a judge finally crosses a political line, speaking constitutional truth to usurped power, the government s refusal to comply threatens the interests and ideals of an articulate and motivated segment of society.

From Trogir our cruise takes us northwards for two days through the Kornati archipelago, where we ride most of the length of Dugi Otok Croatian for long island and have our slumbers interrupted for a walk in the Telašćica Nature Park, to admire its high cliffs and a salt lake fed by sea water through an underground channel.

Gradually it was disclosed to me that the line separating good and evil passes not through states, nor between classes, nor between political parties, either but right through every human heart and through all human hearts, he wrote in The Gulag Archipelago. This line shifts .And even within hearts overwhelmed by evil, one small bridgehead of good is retained.

The fate of the Chagossians, the former residents of the Chagos Islands in the Indian Ocean, is particularly harrowing. The way in which the inhabitants of this archipelago were systematically dispossessed and thrown off their land in the name of Western strategic interests is a human tragedy for which the West can and should make restitution.

We will first consider note No. GM 542 of 22 November 1952 from the Minister for Foreign Affairs of Colombia, signed by the then Minister for Foreign Affairs of Colombia, Juan Uribe Hologuín, and sent to and received by the then Ambassador of Venezuela to Colombia, Luis G. Pietri, concerning Venezuela's sovereignty over the Los Monjes archipelago.

The note was drafted in the framework of bilateral negotiations concerning sovereignty over the Los Monjes archipelago, as is clear from the text, which states that it is the result of the cordial talks which the Governments of our two countries have held on that subject in recent months through our embassies in Bogotá and Caracas .

MOSCOW Prophets, it is said, are supposed to be without honor in their homeland. Yet Moscow has just witnessed the extraordinary sight of Alexander Solzhenitsyn the dissident and once exiled author of the Gulag Archipelago and One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich receiving what amounts to a state funeral, with Prime Minister Vladimir Putin acting as chief mourner.

I have the honour to inform you of the receipt of your letter No. GM 542 of today's date, setting forth the conclusions that the Government of Colombia has reached with regard to the Los Monjes archipelago, as a result of the cordial talks which the Governments of our two countries have held on that subject in recent months through our embassies in Bogotá and Caracas.

In a written statement presented during the proceedings, the prosecutor of the Council recognized that from the point of view of the content and the nature or essence of the administrative act, there can be no doubt that this is a unilateral act of the Colombian Government aimed at bringing an end to the talks between Venezuela and Colombia concerning the Los Monjes archipelago .

My Government fully agrees with the terms of your note and greatly appreciates the decision taken by the Government of Colombia to declare, as it has done, that it does not oppose our sovereignty over the archipelago in question, which has long been under my country's jurisdiction and to which my country has a number of well founded titles establishing it as an integral part of Venezuelan territory.

In a recent visit to this tropical archipelago of 1.3 million people, I had a chance to see some of the leaps Mauritius has taken accomplishments that can seem bewildering in light of the debate in the US and elsewhere. Consider home ownership while American conservatives say that the government s attempt to extend home ownership to 70 of the US population was responsible for the financial meltdown, 87 of Mauritians own their own homes without fueling a housing bubble.
