Abstract

The European Union (EU) fishing fleet is at work around the world. According to the latest statistics, 718 vessels flying the flag of a Member State fish outside EU waters. This course represents less than 1% of all EU fishing vessels, but these alone make up nearly one fourth of its fishing capacity. Indeed, production from these vessels accounts for 21% of European catches – at least in species for human consumption, For certain species, such as shrimps and cephalopods, the proportion is even higher. For tuna fishing, 90% of catches occur in international waters or in the exclusive economic zones of partner states.
