Combatting IUUF ensures fishers’ livelihoods are protected, fishing ports remain economically robust, and U.S. consumers are able to support an industry dedicated to long-term resource sustainability. Read more about our recent efforts  here: https://t.co/oMvHFy032o

What is IUUF? Illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing is the leading global maritime security threat. Up to 27 mil. tons of fish are caught illegally each year, accounting for 20-30% of global annual catch. Global losses are estimated as high as $23.5 billion per year. https://t.co/BkKs8RPj6u

@USCG , @FishOceansCAN & international partners wrap-up Northern Pacific counter Illegal, Unreported, and Unregulated (IUU) Fishing patrol, Operation North Pacific Guard 2024. Full press release here: https://t.co/0ePWH4cQCW

IUU Fishing is detrimental to long-term, stable national security, international relations, and global economics. International partnerships maximize the impact of collective counter-IUU Fishing enforcement efforts and promote the rule of law at sea. https://t.co/zp2rky1aZ1
