\nMember of the European Parliament<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text]Izaskun Bilbao, the first woman to chair the Basque Parliament, is from a Bermeo fishing family. She has been a member of the European Parliament in Brussels representing PNV since 2009 working on the Fisheries committee<\/strong> among others. She knows the sector reality in-depth, emphasises the importance of giving prestige to this activity and making known the effort and risk implicit in working at sea, and admits she misses the seafaring town which she boasts of whenever she can. She states: \u201cWhoever visits Bermeo, will realise why we\u2019re the Tuna World Capital\u201d.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494416736{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

You\u2019re from a fishing family; do you think fishermen\u2019s work is appreciated?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]No, not at all. I\u2019ve always said the price paid for a fish doesn\u2019t sufficiently compensate what the work of the people at sea means, the conditions which they sometimes have to face and what it means for those waiting on the land. And, what can I say about the work of the women, essential yet totally invisible for so long. Without them, without the \u201cneskatillas\u201d (women of the sea), netters, packers, etc., it would have been impossible to maintain this sector.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494437632{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

What do you remember?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I remember my mother and her companions in the harbour, unloading and cleaning boxes of anchovies, and carrying them on wheelbarrows as if they were jugglers all the way to the fish factories. Fortunately, these women are now getting their professional status recognised. The sea\u2019s a tough mistress not to mention income is uncertain, you never know what you\u2019re going to come across there and you don\u2019t know whether your catch quota will be there the next season. If we add to this a distant incomprehensible and even negative attitude from the DG Mare (Directorate-General for Maritime Affairs and Fisheries) at this time in relation to the messages from and needs of the sector, then the panorama is worrying to say the least.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494463439{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

What do you mean?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]That, in my opinion, this attitude of the community authorities is result of a lack of dialogue with and knowledge of the sector encouraging an attitude of distrust towards the extraction activity. I\u2019ve spent years insisting that from the sector itself we also have to make an effort to give this activity prestige, make known the effort and risk involved in working at sea. To value the contribution we make to food safety in Europe, to the extension of European values worldwide likewise co-operation with third countries. We need a positive story. Unfortunately, speeches based on topics when not false hide the reality, which is that the European sector is the first interested party in the preservation of the marine medium and is acting in consequence by leading innovation and sustainability in its activities at sea.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1677163607582{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”20″][edgtf_blockquote text=”It is necessary that from the sector itself we make an effort to give prestige to this activity, to make known the effort and risk involved in working at sea”][vc_empty_space height=”25″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1677494516164{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

We defend the sector and its people<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494529148{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

In the parliamentary group Renew Europe you\u2019re the Fishing co-ordinator, what are your major lines of work?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]They\u2019re different yet multiple; however, in summary we defend the sector and its people. We endeavour to make the alleged marine medium defenders understand that the coastal communities are also part of the same, those communities have made an enormous effort to preserve it. They\u2019re the first to be interested in sustainability and deserve support to preserve heritage of all kinds: cultural, gastronomic, production, natural, etc., which is preserved thanks to the coastal communities.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494561606{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

The Bermeo tuna fleet is a global reference regarding the best sustainable fishing practices. What would you say to the collectives or groups who equate fishing with the predators of the marine medium?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]To simply learn about the sector in-depth, listen to the workers there, come over and get to know us and what we do. Unfortunately, behind much of that criticism there are two problems. Sometimes it\u2019s a question of business model, and sensationalism sells, furthermore, some of this criticism and its dissemination respond to that reality. The truth of the matter is that this kind of attitude is seriously hindering the European tuna fleet which has high social and environmental standards; yet nobody questions the ever greater presence of the Asian fleet in these same waters, which appears to have carte blanche.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494614973{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

It seems the threat of pirates has moved to the Gulf of Guinea. Has the EU taken any steps to protect the ships? How would you value the Atalanta operation?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]The Atalanta operation mapped out the path to follow. Nevertheless, requested by the sector, we asked in Brussels and Madrid to have military personnel on board our ships like the French fleet, as recommended by several international reports. However, this was impossible due to the Government\u2019s refusal; but a solution which worked was reached. It seems the threat in the Gulf of Guinea is on the increase; moreover, it\u2019s not exclusively focused on fishing ships. It essentially affects merchant ships. We need to provide the ships with security so they can continue with their activity. We know the formulas which function, so they\u2019ll have to be put in place again.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494640014{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Has the EU adopted any measures to reduce confusion with the labelling of fish as \u201cvegetable\u201d or ‘vegan’, which is damaging the canning industry?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]There are more and more product labels using the names of fish. I think it\u2019s scandalous to allow a label with ‘Hake Fillets’ occupying the entire product surface while below there\u2019s a virtually illegible font requiring enormous effort to find out that it\u2019s really a \u201cvegetable product imitating a fish fillet in batter made from soy protein\u201d. That\u2019s misleading publicity which damages both the fishing sector and consumer rights, this is why I\u2019d like the committee to uphold very firm criteria like those I\u2019ve seen for example regarding palm honey or denomination of vegetable drinks. Despite working on this for 14 years I don\u2019t see any political willingness.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1677164716555{margin-top: 30px !important;border-bottom-width: 30px !important;padding-top: 10px !important;background-color: #f2f2f2 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1677494668477{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Authenticity<\/h3>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”16236″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_border”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494678926{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Do you boast about Bermeo in Brussels? Do you miss the Cantabrian sea brine?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I encourage everybody to visit Bermeo whenever I can. There\u2019s not one parliamentary intervention about fishing where I haven\u2019t referred to my origin and reminded my place in this institution is transitory. My vocation to represent this reality upholds this, my vocation to bring the voice here of a sector which both needs and deserves to be heard much more. That\u2019s why even though I greatly miss the brine, my medium, I try to recall it by setting out here what I believe it to mean, i.e. authenticity. As it\u2019s both public and well-known, I always use every opportunity I get to be in Bermeo.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”2\/3″][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494701167{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

What would you say to somebody who doesn\u2019t know this seafaring town to go and visit it?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]That we\u2019re nature, light, happiness\u2026 That we\u2019ve got history and overlook the sea from an authentic beautiful place \u2026.. that here we also have unforgettable sunsets, moons that shimmer over the water like nowhere else in the world \u2026 that we\u2019re part of the history of a nation joined to the sea\u2026 of men and women who\u2019ve always bravely faced problems. We have always looked at the horizon as a place of opportunity. We\u2019ve sailed the seas and have always been self-driven and innovating. For all the foregoing, I encourage people to come visit our harbour, our sector, wander around the Fish Fair and purchase first quality products. If the visit\u2019s well-organised and complete, all those who visit Bermeo, will then realise why we\u2019re the Tuna World Capital<\/a>.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text el_class=”pregunta” css=”.vc_custom_1677494741614{margin-bottom: 30px !important;}”]<\/p>\n

Do you like tuna?<\/h4>\n

[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]I love albacore tuna and tuna prepared in any culinary format. It has excellent proteins with enormous organoleptic qualities as well as great possibilities for culinary tradition and innovation. As I handle the fish I can\u2019t help but appreciate and value the effort the men and women of the sea make so we can enjoy these top quality products.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/3″ css=”.vc_custom_1677165553553{margin-top: 40px !important;padding-top: 200px !important;padding-right: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;padding-left: 0px !important;background-color: #098ce8 !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”16245″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
