Russian fishermen will supply fresh tuna to stores and restaurants. Russian scientists will be able to set annual quotas for tuna fishing in the Eastern Sakhalin subzone, allowing Russian fishermen to harvest and deliver fresh tuna to the domestic market.
Consensus
- Russian fishermen may start supplying fresh tuna to domestic markets instead of frozen tuna.
- The Ministry of Agriculture has developed a draft decree setting the allowable catch of tuna in the East-Sakhalin subzone for 2027.
- Fishermen previously caught tuna as bycatch far from Russian ports and shipped it frozen.
- Scientists will annually set quotas for tuna fishing in the East-Sakhalin subzone.
- The Ministry of Agriculture proposes amendments to the list of aquatic biological resources subject to total allowable catch limits.
Points of divergence
