The case under study develops the dispute between Peru and Chile regarding their lateral maritime boundary on the Pacific Ocean. Both States had diametrically opposed points of view, because although for Peru there was no established maritime limit, for Chile it was fully defined by a series of instruments signed by both parties. After unsuccessfully seeking a solution to this disagreement through diplomatic channels, using internationally recognized peaceful means of settlement of disputes, on January 16, 2008, the case was submitted by Peru to the International Court of Justice. During the process, the parties presented their positions regarding the existence of a maritime boundary between them and the course that it should have. After analyzing the arguments and the instruments that were considered relevant, on January 27, 2014, the Court issued the Judgement that put an end to the controversy, using a recourse not provided by the parties and partially assuming the position of both States. The judgement, in the first place, established the existence of an agreed border, on the basis of a tacit agreement, with an extension of only 80 nautical miles, having as a criterion of its course the geographical parallel, with its starting point at low -water line aligned to Boundary Marker No. 1. The Tribunal interpreted that, henceforth, the maritime boundary had not been agreed upon, therefore it decided its layout using the equidistance principle of the “three-step method”.
