Let's see if the Dutch claim it. It's already been identified as a soverign Dutch warship.
(Specially since I know that maritime law is used in my country ON LAND .....)What means "sovereign" in this case ??
How can they claim it if it is not in their waters?
Did I ever mentioned that I HATE maritime laws at all?!(Specially since I know that maritime law is used in my country ON LAND .....)
Ships that belonged to the government of an extant nation, usually military/navy ships, remain the property of that nation in perpetuity, even if they sank in the territorial waters of another nation hundreds of years ago.
