Original sentence: In 2002 Iceland was allowed to rejoin IWC with a reservation to the moratorium (Iceland withdrew from IWC in 1992), but this reservation is not recognised as a valid objection by many IWC members.In addition, Italy, Mexico and New Zealand do not consider the ICRW to be in force between their countries and Iceland.Japan, Norway, Peru and the Soviet Union (later replaced by Russia) lodged formal objections, since the moratorium was not based on advice from the Scientific Committee
