Partial agreement reached in Northeast Atlantic mackerel negotiationsNortheast Atlantic Mackerel Sharing Agreement • March 13th, 2014
After years of heavy dispute and intense negotiations the EU, Norway and Faroe Islands signed yesterday in London a 5 year sharing agreement for the Northeast Atlantic mackerel stock. Yet another major player, Iceland, is not part of this agreement. Also Greenland, a newcomer in these fisheries, is outside the agreement, as is Russia.
