https://doi.org/10.37663/0131-6184-2023-6-4-11
Abstract
This article describes the area where fisheries are regulated by the Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organization (NAFO), as well as the regulatory measures for it, both currently in use and recommended for application. Possible regulatory setbacks for Russian fisheries presented by both actual and developing fishing rules are analyzed.
