FM: Russia illegally banned pork from the European Union
Russia illegally banned pork from the European Union. The Russian pork import ban was not based on the relevant international laws – according to the World Trade Organization (WTO) – the Ministry of Agriculture (FM) told MTI.
Russia's protectionist attitude affects a wide variety of other economic sectors. In the recent past, the EU has initiated WTO procedures on a number of trade barriers imposed by Russia, including recycling fees on cars, excess duties on paper and other products, and antidumping duties on light commercial vehicles.
The panel report can be appealed within 60 days. If no appeal is filed within that deadline, the report will be adopted and Russia will be bound to comply with the recommendation. (MTI)
