According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), international maritime borders generally extend up to 200 nautical miles from a country's coastline, defining an area known as the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), where a coastal nation has sovereign rights over resources like fish and minerals. The first 12 nautical miles from the coastline is where a nation has full sovereignty.

Don't give the Chinese any more ideas. They already mess with sovereign countries in the West Philippine Sea.
The middle of the Indian Ocean is owned by the British!
