INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND THE EUROPEAN UNION IN THE FIELD OF FISHERIES IN THE BALTIC SEA

Abstract

In the modern period, the development of international cooperation in the field of fisheries in the Baltic Sea is based on the interaction of two equal partners - the Russian Federation and the European Union. The geopolitical situation in the region largely depends on the results of this interaction. In the framework of the Agreement between the European Community and the Government of the Russian Federation on cooperation in fisheries and the conservation of the living marine resources in the Baltic Sea took place eleven sessions of the Baltic Sea Fishery Commission in the period from 2009 to 2018. These sessions addressed a whole range of issues related to the rational use of the biological resources of the Baltic Sea, fishing, prospects for the use of shared fish stocks.
