European fishing vessels will imminently cease activities in Senegalese waters after the non-renewal of an agreement between Brussels and Dakar, EU ambassador Jean-Marc Pisani says. Pisani says the agreement will not be renewed after the European Commission notified the Senegalese government in May of "shortcomings" regarding illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing. "The European Union does not wish to renew fisheries agreements with countries that are known to have problems with illegal fishing," he tells a press conference in the Senegalese capital Dakar.
