Japan rejects deal to limit whaling to its own waters http://apocadocs.com/s.pl?1233777474
The [International Whaling Commission] has proposed that Japan scale back or halt its whaling in the Antarctic Ocean over the next five years, a suggestion that Shigeru Ishiba, minister of fisheries, dismissed as "unacceptable."
Tokyo "will not be able to accept any proposal that would prohibit Japan from continuing its research whaling," he told reporters.
Environmental campaigners have also condemned the IWC plan.... "This one-way compromise would lift the commercial whaling moratorium, allow the government of Japan to kill endangered species and permit illegal high-seas whaling to continue," he said.
