Re: According to the dictionary
> The purpose of the Accords appears to be establishing a rough agreement [...] without having to make a formal treaty
Given how much respect international treaties usually get when they oppose specific interests, those accords won't be worth the paper they're written on if somebody finds something of value up there...
Even if most entities involved might respect them (as long as it doesn't cost them too much), there is bound to be some who will consider that the end justifies the means, and that they never actually agreed on anything which could diminish their profits.
