Yes, whaling is banned in China, primarily due to its commitment to the International Whaling Commission's moratorium on commercial whaling. However, China has been known to conduct limited whaling for scientific research, which is allowed under international regulations. The country also engages in the consumption of whale products from other nations, raising concerns about conservation efforts and illegal trade.
Japan defends its whaling practices by asserting that they are a part of its cultural heritage and tradition. The country has conducted whaling under the guise of scientific research, despite international criticism and a ban on commercial whaling by the International Whaling Commission (IWC). Japan argues that whaling is necessary for maintaining its maritime culture and has resumed commercial whaling since 2019, citing a desire for sustainable use of marine resources. This stance has led to significant tensions with environmental groups and other nations advocating for whale conservation.

Japan is the country most prominently involved in whaling. Japan has led an active pro-whaling movement ever since whaling was banned in 1986. Consequently it has gained the support of many other countries such as Iceland and China, but it has also promised financial aid to small, poorer nations of Africa, the Caribbean, and the Pacific countries if they support it in the International Whaling Commission.
