Países como EE.UU. Canadá y la UE están siendo codiciosos.
Están priorizando las ganancias futuras hipotéticas de los recursos genéticos marinos sobre la protección de los océanos, socavando todos los avances logrados en el texto del Tratado sobre Áreas Marinas Protegidas.

The EU's High Ambition Coalition is failing to deliver on their commitments to protect the oceans and finalise a Treaty at this round of talks - now how will they get it done this year?
