United States proposes international control of Antarctica
Washington reports the United States has proposed international control of Antarctica, a continent larger than the United States, with details to be worked out at conferences. The State Department says no formal claims exist, only rights based on discovery, while seven nations and Australia have made claims. Officials cite scientific research as the aim and deny confirmed uranium findings, noting transport costs hinder exploitation.
