Hague ruling expected soon in Costa Rica-Nicaragua dispute

Monday, January 22, 2018


The International Court of Justice at The Hague has announced that on Feb. 2, it will issue its ruling about the maritime border between Nicaragua and Costa Rica and the land border on the northern part of the island of Portillos.

The origin of the border disputes between the two countries dates back to 2010, when Costa Rica protested Nicaragua’s military occupation of border territories in the area.
