Summary/Abstract: The bilateral Romanian-Soviet negociations concerning the continental plateau delimitation of both states in the Black Sea were permanently affected by the judicial status of the Snakes’ Island and its surrounding area. These aspects led to the failure of the negociations and hampered the conclusion of any agreement in this respect. Among the issues which set up a clear difference between the counterparts were included the way in which the Black Sea shore was evaluated, the geological criteria, the length of the coast line, the general direction of both states seaside, and the historical-judicial factors of the area.
