CLEAN:B-roll of bluefin tuna auction, as Japan opposes trade ban

Japan's top government spokesman said on Thursday that his country will oppose a proposed global trade ban on Atlantic bluefin tuna, which has won EU and US backing ahead of an international conference. The trade ban, meant to save the species from extinction is unpopular in Japan, which consumes three quarters of the global catch of bluefin, much prized for sushi and sashimi.
