This summer, Iceland’s whalers have undertaken the biggest fin whale hunt in the North Atlantic in more than 20 years, killing 125 fin whales and more than 80 minke whales. With almost no domestic market for whale meat, Iceland plans to export thousands of tonnes of meat to Japan. The International Whaling Commission which bans commercial whaling and CITES, which bans international trade in whale products, appear powerless to stop Iceland… but the European Union (EU) could.
