Because if either overfishes in their own waters then the whole sea is at risk? Fish don’t turn back at the boundary. Unregulated fishing, or where the regulations complement each other threatens the fish population of the entire sea.
It’s in both parties interests for the long term sustainability of fishing full stop.
