本文探讨了关于托雷斯海峡强制引航的国际合法性的争论。虽然这一措施遭到一些使用国的反对，因为托雷斯海峡是一个用于国际航行的海峡，但澳大利亚和巴布亚新几内亚认为，强制引航是必要的，以克服无人驾驶船舶通过危险沃茨所带来的风险。托雷斯海峡海洋环境的良好健康至关重要，特别是对该地区土著人民的福祉至关重要。托雷斯海峡的强制引航体现了海峡使用国和边界国维护和保护海洋环境的义务，具有国际法的支持。
This article explores arguments about the international legality of compulsory pilotage in the Torres Strait. Although the measure has been opposed by some user states because the Torres Strait is a strait used for international navigation, Australia and Papua New Guinea believe compulsory pilotage is necessary to overcome the risks posed by unpiloted shipping passing through the hazardous waters. The good health of the marine environment in the Torres Strait is essential, particularly for the well-being of indigenous peoples of the area. The article concludes that compulsory pilotage in Torres Strait reflects the obligations of both the user and border states to preserve and protect the marine environment and has support in international law.
