The UN's International Court of Justice (ICJ) has ruled that the Japanese government must halt its whaling program in the Antarctic. It finally agreed with Australia, which had presented the case in May 2010. Australia’s case claimed that the Japanese whaling program was not for scientific research as claimed by Tokyo, arguing that the program was commercial whaling in disguise. A score of other countries have condemned Japan for the practice, yet it took 4 years for UN’s ICJ to pass its verdict.

그 동안 일본은 '고래잡이가 연구 목적의 행위였다' 라고 변명하고 있었지만, UN산하 국제 사법재판소(ICJ)에서 일본의 고래잡이는 연구 목적이 아닌 상업적인 (고기를 먹기 위한) 행위로 간주하고 일본 정부에 고래잡이를 멈출 것을 지시했다고 합니다.
