Russia’s consumer protection watchdog has suspended the sale of alcoholic beverages produced by three Armenian companies.
In a statement, Rospotrebnadzor said the restrictions apply to brandy and wine products manufactured by Vedi-Alco, Abovyan Brandy Factory and Shahnazaryan Wine-Brandy House.
The ban specifically covers Getap Vernashen semi-sweet red wine, dry white wine produced by Vedi-Alco, and a five-star brandy made by Shahnazaryan Wine-Brandy House.
The agency claimed that the products manufactured by the listed companies do not comply with mandatory requirements.
Earlier, Rospotrebnadzor also banned the import and sale of Armenian Jermuk mineral water in Russia, while Rosselkhoznadzor had previously imposed restrictions on flower imports from Armenia.
