At #OurOcean #OOC11, US and Kenya agreed to impose visa restrictions for #IUUfishing. On top of 🇺🇸 $52+ million to counter IUU globally, this new & innovative US tool will target foreign nationals responsible for, complicit in, facilitating or benefiting from #IUU.

In 2022 at #OurOcean, the UK, US & Canada founded the Alliance with 9 more States and the #EU joining later. They all took a commendable 15-point pledge to strengthen efforts to combat #IUU (iuuactionalliance.com/pledge/). But most have fallen short on fully utilising the Global Record (Pledge #7).
