local.seafdecaqd.extract | Japan will seek a partial resumption of commercial whaling at a meeting of the International Whaling Commission later this year, officials said Wednesday. Tokyo has regularly sought the easing of the IWC’s moratorium on commercial whaling and continues to kill whales as part of what it calls a “scientific research” programme despite international criticism. At September’s meeting in Brazil, Japan “will propose setting a catch quota for species whose stocks are recognized as healthy by the IWC scientific committee”, Hideki Moronuki, an official in charge of whaling at Japan’s fisheries agency, told AFP. | en |
