Parliament adopted a resolution on the EU-Greenland and Denmark Sustainable Fisheries Partnership Agreement's implementing protocol for 2025-2030, which sets fishing opportunities for EU vessels in Greenlandic waters in exchange for a financial contribution.

The resolution backs the protocol, making it Parliament's official position, and stresses the need to follow scientific advice, improve data collection, and protect marine ecosystems.

Parliament also calls for increased support for coastal fishing communities and stronger regional fisheries governance.
