In recent months, ports in European countries have become more likely to refuse repairs to fishing vessels from Russia, said German Zverev, president of the All-Russian Association of Fisheries..

According to him, in recent years, 400 of the most modern and efficient vessels, which provide most of the catching, have been repaired abroad, since Russian enterprises do not have the technical ability to repair them..

After the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Russian fishing vessels began to be denied service. Vessels in the Northern and Western basins, served in Norway, Finland, Poland and the Baltic countries, face failures.

Repair denials are not related to sanctions, because the restrictions do not apply to food, and are individual decisions of foreign companies.

Fishing boats need to be repaired every year, improper maintenance will lead to a decrease in catch.

Recall that the canning industry of the Russian Federation also suffered from Russian aggression.. Because of the sanctions in Russia, there is a shortage of tinplate, which is used to produce cans for canned food, including fish. The Fish Union acknowledged that canned food on the Russian market has risen in price by 28%.
