MOSCOW. May 24
Armenia plans to export meat products to Russia.
Russia's agricultural watchdog Rosselkhoznadzor reported that
Armenia's trade representative in Russia Karen Asoyan had requested
the inspection of Armenian meat processing companies interested in
exporting to Russia and other Customs Union markets. The inspections
can only be carried out after obtaining information from the Armenian
veterinary service about the epizootic situation in the country and
specific information about the import of meat to Armenia and a
description of cargo tracking systems, the service said.
Asoyan praised cooperation with Rosselkhoznadzor in the organization
of Armenian dairy product imports to the Russian market. Imports were
resumed in April 2010 and since then the Russian service has not had
concerns.
Overall with regard all types of animal origin products allowed to be
imported to Russia, only one violation was recorded in 2011.
Asoyan told Rosselkhoznadzor about the establishment of a new
government structure in Armenia - the Agriculture Ministry State Food
Safety Service. It monitors food safety form the field to the counter,
he said.
