ACPA requests suspension of two regional decrees

Açoriano Oriental12 September 2026 at 11:29

The Association of Fish Traders of the Azores filed an interim injunction against the Regional Secretariat for Sea and Fisheries of the Autonomous Region of the Azores. The objective of this legal action is to obtain the suspension of two decrees published by that regional body.

ACPA, which represents fish traders in the region, is the entity driving this process against the measures implemented by the regional fisheries authority in the Azores.

The two decrees targeted by the interim injunction are legal instruments from the Regional Secretariat for Sea and Fisheries, the body responsible for managing fishing policies and maritime activities in the autonomous region. The interim injunction was filed to try to halt the implementation of these measures that the association contests.

Why this matters

Fish traders in the Azores now face uncertainty regarding the rules governing their activity, should the suspension be granted. This legal action represents a showdown between the private sector and the regional government over fishing and fish trade policies, with potential impact on businesses and consumers in the region.

Indian prime minister calls on BRICS for a roadmap to reform global governance

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi called at the BRICS summit in New Delhi for a roadmap to reform global governance, arguing that the current structure functions as a pyramid where power and decision-making are concentrated at the top, while affected countries lack the capacity to influence. Modi outlined three axes for reform — representation, responsiveness, and norm-making — and stressed that the reform of the United Nations Security Council "can no longer be postponed," demanding negotiations with set deadlines. India, which holds the rotating presidency of the bloc, sought to position BRICS as a platform for reforming the international system and not as a confrontation alliance, arguing that the Global South should cease being merely a recipient of norms to participate in their development.
