Russia’s veterinary regulator Wednesday banned imports of livestock
products from Armenia over quality concerns, Alexei Alekseyenko,
a spokesman for the regulator, told ITAR-TASS.
The regulator suspects that some Armenian livestock products could be
contaminated with African swine fever, Alekseyenko said. He added that
the regulator had also imposed a ban on imports of meat products from
other countries via Armenia and restrictions on imports of agricultural
produce from Armenia and other countries via Armenia.
