Australia to face Japan over whaling in UN court
(Excerpt): The UN's International Court of Justice has set dates for public hearings on Australia's challenge against Japan's whaling programme in Antarctica. The hearings will start in June in The Hague, in the Netherlands, the court said in a statement on Thursday. Australia took legal action against Japan over whaling in 2010. There has been a ban on commercial whaling for 25 years, but Japan catches about 1,000 whales each year for what it calls research. But critics say it is commercial whaling in another guise. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-22119410 |
