Many developed countries like Russia, Germany, France, China, Japan,
Korea, Denmark etc. have refused to join the program of enriching the
flour with additives, as biotechnologist Alexander Selimyan, member of
Armenian Technological Academy, declared at the public discussions of
RA draft law "On Enriching Wheat Flour" held on 22 January.
He raised a question why Armenia doesn't follow the example of these
countries and follows such countries as Azerbaijan, Tajikistan,
Turkey, Georgia Albania etc.
Health Deputy Minister Sergey Khachatryan responded, "The notion of
flour enrichment comes from Russia, in the 20's after the revolution,
then it was stopped, later the flour was enriched till the end of the
Soviet Union for unknown reasons."
In the European countries it's more targeted, but a number of European
countries carry out through food. We have learnt that Russia will soon
adopt a law on enriching with iron and folic acid.
