Under the pretext of protecting stocks, the fisherman is being eliminated – that is the overall approach of the European Commission which, moreover, does not impose the same constraints and costs on non-Community fleets as it does on European fishermen.
Under påskud af at ville beskytte ressourcerne bliver fiskeren undertrykt. Det er Kommissionens overordnede strategi, og den pålægger ikke flåderne uden for EU de samme begrænsninger og udgifter, som EU-fiskerne.
