United States President Trump has signed an executive order authorizing seabed mining, with the intent of reestablishing the U.S. as a leading player in the realm of deep seabed mineral extraction. This decision circumvents the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) and the International Seabed Authority, prompting widespread concern within the international community. China has emphasized that the international seabed area and its resources constitute the common heritage of humanity, and that unauthorized development authorizations undermine the shared interests of the global community. Exploration and development activities in this domain should strictly adhere to the provisions of UNCLOS. Numerous countries and relevant international organizations have voiced their opposition and condemnation towards this executive order.
