Another Success: Trump Defeats Swede Efforts to Ban Lobster

Postby saxitoxin on Sat Nov 18, 2017 11:22 am

One of the US' few exports is agricultural products. This year the dumbo Swedes tried to block exports of American crabs and lobster.

The NOAA Corps - President Trump's smallest military service - ordered out its junior auxiliary, Fisheries & Oceans Canada, and together they used their superior science to defeat Sweden!

This past year, Sweden proposed that American lobsters (Homerus Americanus) should be considered an “invasive species” for EU waters. Sweden submitted a risk assessment for their proposal to the European Union supporting their claim.

Our Office of International Affairs and Seafood Inspection led the industry and academic team to develop a U.S.–Canada joint response, and provided technical support to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative objecting to the IAS listing and proposed ban. The response focused on gaps within the scientific logic of the Swedish risk assessment and the great impact of the proposed ban on trade. After several levels of review, the European Union agreed with the arguments of the United States and Canada and did not declare American lobster an invasive species, thereby allowing the $200 million annual live lobster trade to continue.

Thank you President Trump and NOAA Corps (and Fisheries and Oceans Canada)!
