    According to the Program, the resources of the 200 mile zone should constitute
the resource base of the Russian fishing industry (about 71–76% of the annual land-
ing). Only 8% have been planned for the oceanic fisheries, and 15–16 for other re-
gions (200 mile exclusive economic zones of other countries based on governmen-
tal agreements).
    In this regard, Russian national interests have to guard the resources of pol-
lock and crab of the Sea of Okhotsk, cod and haddock of the Barents Sea for the
exclusive use by domestic fish producers. The time has come to announce the
Sea of Okhotsk a Russian fishing domain, and prohibit foreign vessels from fish-
ing in this area. Also, all fishing efforts made by domestic companies within the
200 mile zone should be cut down to match the current state of the resource
base.
    The raw marine resources, explored by the Russian scientists, promise to af-
ford up to 9,0–10,0 million tons of fish and seafoods yearly. Exclusion of some
remote fishing grounds, again for economic considerations, from the Russian fish-
ing fleet operations will cause a decrease in the resource base of estimated
4,2–6,5 million ton. It should be noted, about this amount is set forth as a target
catch in the Fish Program for the year 2 000.
