The International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT), comprising representatives from 80 countries, including the European Commission, is holding an assembly in Limassol, Cyprus, to negotiate the catch of tuna and related species. The discussion will primarily focus on tropical tuna, with secondary considerations given to swordfish and blue shark. The Spanish government is advocating for the maintenance of the current bigeye tuna quota, challenging a 72-day ban aimed at aiding its recovery.

The assembly is also addressing issues such as electronic monitoring, labour standards, and the prevention of illegal fishing.
