  • The Cook Islands–United States Maritime Boundary Treaty is a 1980 treaty that establishes the maritime boundary between the Cook Islands and American Samoa. It resolved a number of territorial disputes between the Cook Islands and the United States. The treaty was signed in Rarotonga on 11 June 1980. The boundary is an equidistant line between the nearest islands of the two states. The boundary is 566 nautical miles long and consists of 24 maritime straight-line segments defined by 25 individual coordinate points. The north end of the boundary forms the tripoint with Tokelau and the south end of the boundary forms the tripoint with Niue. The treaty resolved a number of territorial disputes between the Cook Islands and the United States. First, the United States recognised the Cook Islands' sovereignty over the islands of Pukapuka, Manihiki, Rakahanga, and Penrhyn. Second, the United States implicitly demonstrated that it had abandoned its claim that Tokelau was part of American Samoa, since the boundary was set to terminate at its north end at a point at which a hypothetical equidistant boundary tripoint between the Cook Islands, American Samoa, and Tokelau would have existed. In December 1980, the United States confirmed the tripoint by agreeing to the Treaty of Tokehega with New Zealand, which formally established the Tokelau–American Samoa border. The full name of the treaty is Treaty between the United States of America and the Cook Islands on Friendship and Delimitation of the Maritime Boundary between the United States of America and the Cook Islands. The treaty was ratified by the United States and the Cook Islands in 1983 and came into force on 8 September 1983. (en)
  • O Tratado de fronteira marítima Estados Unidos–Ilhas Cook é um tratado de 1980 que estabelece uma fronteira marítima entre as Ilhas Cook e Samoa Americana. Resolveu uma série de disputas territoriais entre as duas partes. O tratado foi assinado em Rarotonga em 11 de junho de 1980. A fronteira é uma linha equidistante entre as ilhas mais próximas dos dois Estados. O limite é 566 milhas náuticas e consiste de 24 segmentos de linhas retas marítimas, definidas por 25 pontos de coordenadas individuais. O extremo norte da fronteira constitui um tripoint com Tokelau e o fim da fronteira sul com Niue. Revolveu uma série de disputas territoriais entre os Estados Unidos e Ilhas Cook. Primeiro, os Estados Unidos reconheceram a soberania das Ilhas Cook sobre as ilhas Pukapuka, , Rakahanga e . Em segundo lugar, os Estados Unidos implicitamente demonstrou que havia abandonado sua alegação que Tokelau fazia parte da Samoa Americana, uma vez que o limite foi definido para terminar na sua extremidade norte, um ponto em que a fronteira hipotética eqüidistante dos três pontos entre as Ilhas Cook, Samoa Americana e Tokelau teria existido. Em dezembro de 1980, os Estados Unidos confirmaram os três pontos ao concordar com o Tratado de Tokehega com a Nova Zelândia, que formalmente delimitou a fronteira da Samoa Americana com Tokelau. Foi ratificado pelo Senado dos Estados Unidos e as Ilhas Cook em 1983, e entrou em vigor em 8 de setembro de 1983. (pt)
