"The UN Convention on the Law of the Sea and the UN Fish Stocks Agreement require that coastal states and states whose fleets carry out fishing of stocks in adjacent high sea areas cooperate with the responsible management of straddling and highly migratory fish stocks, and the stocks found in adjacent exclusive economic zones, in order to ensure their long-term sustainability, whether through direct mutual consultation or through the regional fisheries management organisations. As the EU is a lucrative market of destination for fisheries products, it has a particular responsibility in ensuring that this obligation to cooperate is respected. This proposal aims to establish a rapid and effective mechanism that allows the measures related to trade and other types of measures to be used for those states that fail to meet their obligations. We support the rapporteur’s proposals. The trade measures to be implemented should not be confined to imports of ‘stocks of common interest’ and ‘associated species’, but should apply to all imports of fish and fisheries products of all species originating from countries that have agreed to avoid non-sustainable fishing activities."@en1
