Sažetak During the last few years Europe has seen the greatest migration of people since World War
Two. Many refugees arrive by sea, across the Mediterranean Sea.
This article analyses their legal status with respect to the maritime zones they find themselves
in. An individual obtains the international legal status of refugee when the vessel leaves the
territorial sea of the country of origin. On the other hand, territorial sea and internal seawaters
of the receiving country are the only maritime areas of the territory, or rather of the sovereignty,
of European countries. Therefore, appropriate rights and duties of the states are the most evident
when a refugee is found in them.
The territorial reach of the legal principle of non-refoulement, which entails that no refugee
should be returned to any country where he or she is likely to be in danger, is dubious. Some
member states of the European Union do not apply this principle on the high seas.
