A legal tribunal in The Hague has delivered its final decision regarding the maritime disputes between Ukraine and Russia over the legal status of the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait.

海牙的一個法律法庭已就烏克蘭與俄羅斯之間關於亞速海與克爾赤海峽法律地位的海事爭議，做出了最終決定。

The legal process began in 2016 when Ukraine used the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) to challenge Russia's control over Crimea and its surrounding waters. Ukraine argued that the Kerch Strait should be treated as an international waterway and requested that the Crimean Bridge be removed because it blocked navigation. Additionally, Ukraine asked for financial compensation for the use of natural resources in these disputed areas.

法律程序始於 2016 年，當時烏克蘭利用《聯合國海洋法公約》（UNCLOS）挑戰俄羅斯對克里米亞及其周邊海域的控制權。烏克蘭主張克爾赤海峽應被視為國際水道，並要求拆除克里米亞大橋，因為該橋阻礙了航行。此外，烏克蘭還要求就在這些爭議地區利用天然資源獲得財務補償。

After reviewing the evidence, the five-member panel of judges rejected most of Ukraine's claims. This included the request for money and the demand to take down the bridge. However, the tribunal did find that Russia failed to properly assess the environmental impact of some infrastructure projects, such as gas pipelines. Despite this, the court decided that a formal statement of the facts was enough and did not order any payments or the stopping of projects.

在審查證據後，由五名法官組成的小組駁回了烏克蘭的大部分主張。這包括了索賠要求以及拆除大橋的要求。然而，法庭確實發現俄羅斯未能正確評估某些基礎設施項目（例如天然氣管道）的環境影響。儘管如此，法院決定一份正式的事實陳述已足夠，並未下令支付任何款項或停止項目。

Different parties have interpreted the result in very different ways. The Russian Foreign Ministry described the ruling as a clear victory, emphasizing that the court recognizes the Sea of Azov and the Kerch Strait as Russian domestic waters. Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chairman of the Security Council, asserted that the decision proves international recognition of Russia's new borders. On the other hand, the ruling did not officially decide who owns the Crimean peninsula, which most of the international community still recognizes as Ukrainian territory.

不同方對結果的解讀截然不同。俄羅斯外交部將此次裁決描述為一次明顯的勝利，強調法院承認亞速海與克爾赤海峽為俄羅斯的內海。安全委員會副主席德米特里·梅德韋傑夫則斷言，該決定證明了國際社會對俄羅斯新邊界的認可。另一方面，該裁決並未正式判定克里米亞半島的歸屬，而國際社會的大多數國家仍將其視為烏克蘭領土。

In summary, the tribunal rejected Ukraine's main maritime claims and requests for money, although it did point out that Russia failed to meet certain environmental standards.

總結來說，法庭駁回了烏克蘭主要的海事主張與財務要求，儘管法庭確實指出俄羅斯未能達到某些環境標準。
