I didn't say anything about who can pass through Pakistani EEZ or not. I only mentioned an observation(for which i explicitly said "I could be wrong" and your knee jerk reaction has proven that i wasn't.) Now lets come to the points you have raised. Considering India is Pakistan's arch rival and it has also been proven that India is using Iran as a base for spreading terrorism into Balochistan, Pakistan. Pakistan can block India's passage through it's EEZ and that is the right given to Pakistan via UN convention on the law of the sea.........which clearly you don't know squat about.well are you saying that no maratime ship can pass thru a EEZ of another country my Friend in an EEZ you only have exclusive rights to explore oil and natural resources and fishersies but you cant stop maratime traffic cause if you do that you are in clear voilation of WTO and UNO and all financial treaties think what can happen if you stop indian maratime ships passing thru your EEZ and kindly read international law on maratime shipping
Article 25
Rights of protection of the coastal State
1.The coastal State may take the necessary steps in its territorial sea to prevent passage which is not innocent.
Article19
Meaning of innocent passage
1. Passage is innocent so long as it is not prejudicial to the peace, good order or security of the coastal State. Such passage shall take place in conformity with this Convention and with other rules of international law.
2. Passage of a foreign ship shall be considered to be prejudicial to the peace, good order or security of the coastal State if in the territorial sea it engages in any of the following activities:
(a) any threat or use of force against the sovereignty, territorial integrity or political independence of the coastal State, or in any other manner in violation of the principles of international law embodied in the Charter of the United Nations;
(c) any act aimed at collecting information to the prejudice of the defence or security of the coastal State;
(d) any act of propaganda aimed at affecting the defence or security of the coastal State
Now Chabahar hasn't even been built yet and Pakistani authorities caught an Indian military terrorist, who confessed to all the crimes enlisted above and even more to give Pakistan a strong case.
