But not much action occurs against the IUUs (Illegal, Unreported and Unregistered fishing vessels).
This week the UN General Assembly in New York expressed concern:
... that illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing constituted a serious threat to fish stocks and marine habitats and ecosystems, putting the economies of many States — particularly developing States, who were frequently the most vulnerable to risks related to climate change and economic crises — in danger.However, it is just a concern. There is no hard action to be taken against these pirate vessels.
