Vienna, Austria/Bucharest, Romani – A Romanian ban on the commercial fishing of all wild sturgeon species for the next ten — which came into force on 4 May 2006 — has to be followed up by other countries in the region in order to restore declining sturgeon populations in the Danube river basin.
The best occasion to initiate such decisions in Bulgaria, Serbia and Montenegro and Ukraine is the upcoming CITES (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora) meeting of the north-western Black Sea and Lower Danube Sturgeon region, which will take place in Sarulesti, Romania, from 21–22 June 2006.
The Black Sea once harboured some of the most productive sturgeon populations. Sturgeons are fished mainly for caviar, although their meat and skin are also widely used in the region.
