Russia preparing to scrap fishery agreement with the UK

The move is in response to Britain's decision to exclude Russia from its most favored nation trade status.

According to the general director of Russia's Union of Fishermen of the North, Konstantin Drevetnyak, in recent years fishing vessels from the United Kingdom have not been operating in the Barents Sea.
