Russia expects report from Armenia on sanitary inspections and plan for compliance with EAEU requirements: Rosselkhoznadzor

Russia expects a report from Armenia on sanitary inspections and a clear plan for compliance with EAEU requirements, Rosselkhoznadzor told Izvestia.

“Rosselkhoznadzor expects the Armenian side to provide the results of the investigation and information on the measures taken, as well as an action plan proposed by the Armenian side for compliance with the EAEU’s veterinary and phytosanitary requirements,” the agency said.

Since the beginning of May, Russia has started imposing restrictions on imports of Armenian agricultural products. Later, Oksana Lut, head of Russia’s Ministry of Agriculture, stated that Armenia would only be able to resume agricultural supplies at the previous volume if it strictly complies with the EAEU’s veterinary and phytosanitary standards.
