This is nothing more than a failure of international law and no will on the part of any of the nations to actually do anything to stop it. The simple fact that the politicians are too willing to ultimately turn a blind eye and mouth platitudes is more than justification for a complete change in how things are run on this planet. When you have greedy self-interest dictating how countries interact with one another and the subsequent flagrant violations of international "law" and "treaties" (most of which aren't worth the paper they're written on), this is what you can expect. It's an excellent example of why the nation state is moribund and should be scraped. You will have no action being taken to save any population of any of the whale species whilst the present governmental system of this planet continues.
