dcterms.description | The United States has recently banned the import of shrimps from Guyana and other countries because the fishing nets used to catch them could endanger marine turtles. Shrimp-producing countries filed an appeal at the World Trade Organisation, which ruled in their favour. However, the WTO also recognised that the shrimp trade could damage the environment, and accepted the right of the US to protect the turtles. Reason enough, surely, to start off some talks, instead of imposing rules unilaterally? | en |
