Mais il me semble illogique et insensé que 80 % des anchois qui jusque 1995 étaient pêchés dans les bancs du Portugal, selon un accord entre cet État membre le Portugal- et la France, vont être pêchés dans le Golfe de Gascogne et que le Conseil de ministres continue d'affirmer que cela n'a aucune incidence sur la population des anchois du Golfe de Gascogne.
However, it seems to go against all reason and intelligence that 80% of the anchovies, which, until 1995, were being fished in the Portuguese fishing grounds, through an agreement between that Member State – Portugal – and France, should now be fished in the Bay of Biscay and that the Council of Ministers wishes to maintain that this has no effect on the anchovy stocks in the Bay of Biscay or the Cantabrian Sea.
