前绿党领袖Bob Brown呼吁丹麦女王玛丽代表在格陵兰被捕的反捕鲸活动家Paul Watson进行干预。 Former Greens leader Bob Brown appealed to Queen Mary of Denmark to intervene on behalf of Paul Watson, an anti-whaling activist arrested in Greenland. 华生是海洋牧羊人保护团体的创始人, 可能因反捕鲸活动在日本面临15年监禁。 Watson, founder of the Sea Shepherd conservation group, faces potential 15-year imprisonment in Japan for his anti-whaling activities. Brown认为,如果将华生引渡到日本, 玛丽王后的干预可能会阻止丹麦成为“东京的冰瓶”, 根据国际法, 日本鲸鱼是罪犯, Brown argues Queen Mary's intervention could prevent Denmark from appearing as a "lickspittle of Tokyo" if it extradites Watson to Japan, and that under international law, Japanese whalers are the criminals, not Watson. 支持华生的保罗·沃森上尉基金会在其请愿书中收集了25 000个签名,要求他在发射后数小时内释放。 The Captain Paul Watson Foundation, which supports Watson, gathered 25,000 signatures in its petition for his release within hours of its launch.
