ArmInfo. Rosselkhoznadzor will impose temporary restrictions on the import of flower products originating and shipped from Armenia starting May 22, 2026, until the inspection of greenhouses is completed and the results are analyzed. According to a statement on the Rosselkhoznadzor website, the decision was made to protect Russia's phytosanitary safety and export potential.
"Despite the guarantees provided by the Food Safety Inspectorate of Armenia, the detection of quarantine items for the EAEU continues. Of the 96.2 million flower products imported, 135 cases were detected. This represents 77% of the total number of detections for all of 2025," the inspection agency stated. It's worth noting that a similar problem with the export of Armenian flowers to Russia arose last summer. Experts suspected a political motive.
