Caspian littoral states to introduce moratorium for sturgeon
Astana. January 14. Kazakhstan Today - The Caspian littoral states will discuss in the end of January in Iran the question of introduction of the moratorium on sturgeon in the Caspian Sea. The chairman of Fishing Industry Committee, Yury Romashov, informed at the press conference in the Ministry of Agriculture, the agency reports.
Y. Romashov reminded that the initiative on introduction of the moratorium on sturgeon in the Caspian Sea was put forward by the President of Kazakhstan, Nursultan Nazarbayev, in April, 2009 during the official visit of the President of Iran, Mahmud Ahmadinezhad, to Kazakhstan.
"We received an invitation from Iran to take part on January 25-27 in Teheran in the 31 session of the commission on water bioresources of the Caspian Sea."
As for the position of the other near-Caspian states on this issue, Y. Romashov said that Russia supports this offer and has unilaterally introduced moratorium on sturgeon, but has not decreased its actual catch.
"Iran refrained from the moratorium last summer."
Turkmenistan refrained from the moratorium. "They will, probably, support this idea, but it will be deknown at the commission session."
Azerbaijan suggests introducing moratorium stage by stage."
