On 7 December 2015, 33 States issued a joint demarche condemning Japan’s decision to reinstitute lethal scientific research. On 12 January 2016, given the likely resumption of the so-called ‘whale wars’ between the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society and the Japanese whaling fleet, which has already resulted in the sinking of a protest vessel, a finding of piracy by the U.S. Courts and a series of dangerous altercations between the two parties, the governments of Australia, the Netherlands, New Zealand and the U.S. issued a joint statement calling for restraint and an adherence to recognised navigational standards. The joint statement pointedly observed that newrep-A "has not proceeded through the IWC’s processes"; see Government of the Netherlands, Joint Statement on Whaling and Safety at Sea, 12 January 2016, available at https://www.government.nl/documents/media-articles/2016/01/12/joint-statement-on-whaling-and-safety-at-sea.
