French fishermen end strike in the Mediterranean
0 Comments | AFP, June, 2008
MARSEILLE, France (AFP) — French fishermen from Mediterranean ports on Monday ended a three-week strike as truckers in the southwest staged fresh protests against soaring fuel prices.
"All of the fleets from the Mediterranean ports went back to work this morning, but we remain very vigilant," said Ange Natoli, a representative of the Mediterranean fishing fleets.
French fishermen have suspended their protest ahead of a June 23-24 meeting of EU fisheries ministers that is to tackle the latest crisis in European fisheries over skyrocketing fuel prices.
Fleets in France's biggest fishing port of Boulogne-sur-Mer, Calais and Dunkirk last week called off their strike pending the outcome of the talks in Brussels.
