<span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif; color:#404040">This paper examines Australia’s continental shelf-natural prolongation claim in the Timor Sea. Drawing on international law, UNCLOS and concomitant case law, it examines how Australia
has persistently refused to negotiate maritime boundaries with East Timor. It also reveals the role Australia’s singular
<i><u>de</u> <u>jure</u></i> recognition of Indonesia’s illegal occupation of Timor-Leste has played in the petroleum politics of the Timor Sea, along with its withdrawal from the arbitral jurisdiction of the International Court of Justice, and the International
Law of the Sea on the eve of East Timor’s restoration of independence. </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Arial",sans-serif; color:#404040" lang="EN-US"></span></p>
