| Summary: | The article deals with the development of the Soviet fishing fleet in the context of the expansion of the Soviet influence in the world of the 1960-1970s. The object of the study is “Sovrybflot”, a state-owned company, established to coordinate the economic activity of the Soviet fishing fleet abroad. The author concludes that the high technological level of the Soviet fishing vessels enabled the development of industrial ocean fishing. In the early 1970s the USSR became the first naval power, which enabled Soviet vessels, including the fishing ones, to navigate in various parts of the World Ocean. “Sovrybflot” defended the interests of the Soviet fishing, created joint enterprises and signed agreements on mutual cooperation in the area of fishing. |
