The lecture stressed the importance of fisheries in the Gulf due to their connection to the food security of the peoples of the region, and the need for cooperation between the countries of the region to maintain these fish stocks and manage them sustainably, especially fish groups that many countries participate in exploiting, in addition to the priority of working to improve statistics related to fisheries and management of stocks that are heavily exploited and encouraging the exchange of statistics, information and technical expertise among the countries of the region.
