Rosselkhoznadzor expects corrective action plan from Armenia

Rosselkhoznadzor expects corrective action plan from Armenia

ArmInfo.  Russia's Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance  (Rosselkhoznadzor) is expecting the results of an investigation into  sanitary violations and a comprehensive corrective action plan from  Armenia, the agency told Izvestia in response to an inquiry regarding  a potential easing or lifting of restrictions.

The agency stated that it is awaiting information from the Armenian  side on the measures already taken.  "As well as an action plan  proposed by the Armenian side to ensure compliance with EAEU  veterinary and phytosanitary requirements," the agency added.

Rosselkhoznadzor imposed a total ban on the import and transit of all  quarantine-regulated products from Armenia starting June 12, 2026.  The restrictions affect vegetables, fruits, flowers, dairy products,  and alcohol. The measure was prompted by insufficient quality and  safety controls on the part of Armenian agencies.
