The Antarctic Treaty

evidence

The Treaty reserves Antarctica for peaceful purposes and prohibits military activity (Article I), guarantees freedom of scientific investigation, freezes the territorial claims question so that no act while it is in force constitutes a basis for asserting, supporting or denying a claim and no new claim may be made (Article IV), applies to the area south of 60 degrees south (Article VI), and provides for inspection of all stations, installations and equipment by observers designated by consultative parties (Article VII). V55 VERIFICATION BASIS: this session had NO working research channel - WebFetch to ats.aq was refused by the network egress proxy and the WebSearch budget was exhausted before production began. The citation rests on the producer's prior knowledge of the treaty text, not on consultation during production, and must be opened before publication.

A evidence is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
