FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda An official decision by South Korea to abandon plans to launch a scientific whaling program puts it on the side of nations who care about conservation, the Australian government says.
South Korea announced earlier this month at an International Whaling Commission meeting it would use a loophole to proceed with a scientific research program, as Japan does in the Southern Ocean and the North Pacific.
But it soon backed down, with Foreign Minister Bob Carr’s South Korean counterpart telling him last week Seoul had decided against going ahead with the program.
On Thursday the news was official.
Environment Minister Tony Burke said, “Korea will stand side by side with the vast majority of nations of the world on the side of conservation.”
“This shows that countries which have looked at so-called scientific whaling can abandon those ideas, respect the moratorium and do so with their heads held high.”
Senator Carr said South Korea had confirmed its reputation as a country seriously committed to the highest environmental standards, “a country that is vying to be a green superpower”.
“It’s nice to see a friend and a partner won’t be pursuing whaling,” he said.
Australia is pursuing a legal case in the International Court of Justice to bring an end to Japan’s so-called scientific whaling program in the Antarctic and the North Pacific.
