Letter to Commissioner Roswall on EU Regulation on Trade in Seal Products
Letter to Commissioner Roswall on EU Regulation on Trade in Seal Products
On behalf of the undersigned organisations, we are writing with regard to the Fitness Check of the EU rules on trade in seal products, which was launched in May 2024.
We strongly urge the Commission to resist pressure from a small group of Member States and to fully uphold the Regulation on trade in seal products. Weakening this legislation would not only jeopardise the EU’s broader commitments to animal welfare and its trade policy ambitions, but also disregard the deeply held moral convictions of millions of EU citizens that led to its adoption.
Every problem has a solution, every solution needs support.
The problems we face are urgent, complicated, and resistant to change. Real solutions demand creativity, hard work, and involvement from people like you.
