Top ministers from the Faroe Islands and Greenland want to renegotiate their countries’ rights to act independently of Denmark when it comes to fishing. They plan to discuss this issue with the newly-appointed Danish Prime Minister, Lars Løkke Rasmussen, at the summer’s national assembly. Currently, Denmark represents all three countries in international negotiations about fishing quotas. Due to climate change, the oceans are getting warmer and large shoals of fish are streaming north, seeking colder waters. In the Faroe Islands and Greenland fishing is the main industry and the two countries want to increase the amount of fish they are allowed to catch. However, the same goes for other European as well as Asian countries, who all want to get their share in the new big fishing areas in the North Atlantic and eventually, as the ice melts, near the North Pole.
