Decizie istorică a Islandei, care iese din clubul ultimelor 3 țări din lume ce practică o activitate economică controversată

Iceland plans to introduce a bill in February to permanently ban whaling, leaving Norway and Japan as the only countries still practicing this controversial activity. The decision follows years of protests from animal rights activists and public support for the ban. Iceland's government has approved a quota for hunting 150 fin whales this year, but the new legislation aims to protect vulnerable whale populations. The international moratorium on whaling has been in place since 1986, allowing only certain indigenous groups to hunt whales for subsistence purposes.
