On the basis of the information obtained by the Commission, it appears that Guinea no longer fails to ensure compliance with its duties incumbent upon it under international law and in particular in the light of Articles 61, 62, 94, 117 and 118 of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea and Articles 18, 19 and 20 of the United Nations Fish Stocks Agreement. Therefore, this Decision amends Implementing Decision 2014/170/EU in order to remove Guinea from the list of non-cooperating third countries in fighting IUU fishing in the Annex.
