10:30 am
really want to combat illegal fishing they have the means to do read you they have the airplanes to photograph the they have the patrols to stop them from fishing in or seize. country because they are shrinking their country and what is more serious . they are destroying our fishing resources and marine wealth. regulation. which is slowly acquiring a global day bench and a worldwide effect has been implemented only for a year now the regulation seeks the source of the profit if women. anish to put
10:31 am
a stop to profit making the legal fishing will stop and the only way to do that is to cease all. imports to europe. also deposits and marine life deposits in january imported to europe must be a certificate which credible to certify people that they are not the product of illegal fishing that they have been caught according to the regulations. voting illegal fishing certificate is good and. official legally have networks that bypass. allow them to sell in the european asian and north american market fish that has been caught illegally in the consumer from north america or asia or europe will not distinguish in the market stalls. he knows the fish
10:32 am
is good but if it is been fished illegally or not that does not concern the consumer but of course this is not easy and the european union is doing all it yet but don't forget that this is just another player on the global chess board and let's not forget there is great resistance and huge interests great now in our effort to form and use fishing policy which will respect all that you mention the sustainability of the sea is met by a lot of opposition. these are all words. at the same time the ships are in the ocean every day today we are trying to establish an economy of subsistence through the. states of west africa from kenneth bay so descend. so if we are in such a state of poverty. they have been flooded by drug dealers going to ship is arrested here. by chance but the way you get it is carrying two tons of cocaine
10:33 am
and you know one or two killers but two tons of cocaine so we give that means the drug smugglers don't come to these states because they are in misery air but they're going to we are governed by puppet presidents who do not care for the development of society either for education nor health and you don't know what the armed forces they care about nothing that you could when we build a statue worth thirty five billion we can't be saying we can't afford to buy two ships to patrol the seas when the organization of the islamic summit has cost hundreds of billions we cannot say we do not have the means we could say we channel our resources elsewhere.
10:35 am
the conditions typically on these vessels that are engaging in are you fishing are . are her bendis there's there's there's no way to describe how horrible and how completely unacceptable the conditions are on board of these vessels sometimes the crew have not been off the ship for for for months even years at a time the ships were only being supplied every couple of months in terms of being given food and clean water etc there's no medical care on board the ships the ships look like a ghost ships of rest but kids. that if any european were to see how the fish is now ended on in what type of conditions the fishes now ended with the same platform where fish will be landed will be the platform where the fishermen will actually. defra katoey where you're in a tour that it gets it's horrendous.
10:36 am
because from senegal i've been in. togo all nationalities throughout. the phone working conditions on the ships. that senegalese fish about. twenty four hours nonstop but it's. wonderful because if you bought the teams work for twelve hours or more then the other for twelve. days there are days when their feet swell up inside their boots. and you need a knife to take them off people probably could cope with all of this but some fall asleep on the working table. and that causes labor accidents. and they are abnormal conditions.
10:37 am
well we stay for three months and then we go up to shore are you well paid no we're not to. have a where but what you know in africa we suffer. when i really do not get paid well enough and there are also some restrictions on it but you are not well here but there is nothing we can do this is how we live you know there is poverty in africa to find a job. they offer you a two hundred dollars salary. to help your family. it's not good but we can live with that i will be able to make. there is nothing but misery here and misery. here. no. no no.
10:38 am
that ensued if that my husband is at sea. when we see biologists he used to be a fisherman that he could not make an in the top many more than a month so he left to become a sailor my dear because fishing is not stable in st louis so he went to the ships . of this size of. this. kind of rock when he returns. florida serviced everything in his boyhood in order to seed the semele here to play with and so the minute runs out to get there you know. i have two boys and a girl but i have also lost two girls community. i. don't know what did your
10:39 am
children die from. the money. he got he. says fit when they were ill. and did you have money to buy their medicine. like. it was too expensive for us so one cost fifteen euros and other twenty two here or there but i didn't and you can do more than us we're both out with an album of different. people.
10:41 am

10:46 am
composition i still believe will try the problem with truly are closed the other courts will. the same repeat patient to be said to savor the disembarkation and clearing through customs of illegal fishing pride in there has been complaints and we're trying to work together with the corresponding countries however as far as the european union countries are concerned we are responsible and all they can say is that we intend to use force controls we really must look into these issues.
10:47 am
of this in a while from soon ago as soon as the fishes caught on the one hand it is caught immediately and on the other it gets here within twelve hours packed in styrofoam with a proper ice at nine to twelve degrees celsius and it gets here right away within twelve hours. yes of course they buy it it's also cheaper there's not a lot of difference from domestic fish. these people should think if you do that when they eat fish that comes from an illegal fishing they eat the life of a fisherman to go three d. if the consumers think of that and realise the cost of the money follows what the.
10:48 am
they'll see that them money does not benefit the fishermen but you know the fishing communities. that. say are foreign companies and very faint chinese or spanish if they are the two states that operate like that in west africa and they found a key to the company which is supposedly senegalese they arrive with fifteen big
10:49 am
industrial scale fishing vessels that supposedly being low into the company and so they fish freely. how do they escape the controls. when the ship comes to dhaka he says oh but he seeks a senegalese pasta not going to finish the senegalese cause now becomes the fictitious president we. did their big deal. in order to deal with the public opinion and the regulation it's. the best of stamps and everything but it won't be fiddly. however it's the europeans who exploits the business. when the product arrives the european is here he checks it loads in the contain is
10:50 am
10:51 am
so by having a flag sometimes as far removed as mongolia when you are on your ship you are basically exempt from a lot of fishing rules because mongolia hasn't ratified certain treaties or as and is not member of certain fisheries management organizations so this way you avoid many rules and regulations to is a clear new poll that needs to be addressed by the international community. the fishermen live day by day and what they earn isn't enough for them to make a living anymore. and that is why there are waves of migration towards spain with eve did we get us all the list but. before when fishing when good and it said the
10:52 am
people. fishermen had no need to leave for europe ever they had opportunities possibilities and they were not interested in migrating. to middle europe just. the one that organizes the flight of africans to europe organizes illegal migration once the e.u. had helped us out in combating illegal fishing all the young fisherman who are abandoning africa instead of going to europe would fish here for there would be a fish and they would make a profit. they would be able to feed their families but when they have nothing to eat when they lack protein when they have no money they will go where they can find to go to europe america canada. europe in europe is so if the e.u. wants our fish it should accept our children and its country so it can't be that it
10:53 am
takes our fish causing misery and then tells our children to stay in their country the main public health issue in the e.u. is obesity. in our countries the main public health issue is famines so this injustice is not sustainable either we live together in a fair and it gala tarion world or we share a world of terror because you would you apply can't tell you how many are in the ocean with the sea bottom is full of pirogue with the dead bodies of our children young people who left in search of adventure. when i was a child i would come to see because i loved it a credit boom or would you do it as the son of a fisherman who is proud to go out to see. his dream is to become
10:54 am
a captain one day after the murder of me. how little i had no money to support my parents so i decided to take the perogue and emigrate. i didn't care about the danger or if i would live or die my dream was europe so that i could help my. parents out. there. with you. i took eighty seven people with me. the woman what we called one or more captain to help with the embarkation number one but he was unlucky on the you know a wave overturned his ship. and nine people died in the sea of bora. never to millions who tried to save them. to the sea was cold and they all died
10:55 am
got them but if we left without them. we said we're now all heading to spain you know but one male one family with the same dream brothers and sisters mr perot gets there we will be saved if it sinks we will all die even those who know the sea well we must show solidarity of water starts getting into the pirogue we all take it out immediately we don't wait for the fisherman. legs to be a god given day after two days at sea someone fell ill never know what i left in the world around them he wouldn't eat or drink he was vomiting we forced him to eat and drink but he kept on vomiting we don't know what. i put it through after he died on the third day of the journey that he would get we threw his body to see because he started to decompose. never operated when we when
10:56 am
we threw his body into the sea. and we all prayed to god that he would go to heaven i mean you have been to many were crying and saying we're all going to die. when there was an image on the fourth day big waves broke the barrel of the. big guy it was a mobile dog but. at that moment. everyone was out of control one good know how many because those people who had more experience know how dangerous it is . a middle going to get out will have the god it was about us on the local god i'm think i'm evident go more among the eldest of a soul a very experienced fisherman he told us not to fear about the pira good byes just to take a rope. and use it to tie the broken pieces. that were committed in the book because. we did i thought you and we used our bags to close the hole that we really don't want. to look at some lay down and sealed the hole with their backs you know

10:58 am
but he couldn't hold on to their race such a thing as i was growing a teacher and now she runs her own amazon factory where they throw down a challenge to man there's no alcohol or smoking and even coffee is forbidden they worship the earth fire and water. and learn martial arts. will he be able to win. his woman. if we look at the history of the lp c w and it's in danger man say in the past with the united states there is a history all let's say intimidation or mining collation whatever you call it if indeed though we find that president assad is lying or cheating and i. will do that because his life is really on the line in the life of the whole regime then of course then i think a military strike could take close. to
