Would this have anything to do with the fact that Japan was recently caught red-handed for falsifying its catches of South Bluefin Tuna? Perhaps everybody (the Europeans included) are finally waking up to the rort that is Japan's tuna fishing industry.

Betting: Japanese companies own fish farms but do not fish there.

Japanese high demand is part of the problem but not entirely.

No, it would have absolutely nothing to to with that, since this report is about Atlantic Bluefin Tuna, and the overfishing of it conducted by Mediterranean countries.
