Pork from the EU was labeled as Serbian

Serbian labeled pork from EU countries was transported to Russia, although Moscow banned pork meat to be imported from the EU at the beginning of the year, due to the risk of swine fever.

According to the Wednesday report of the Magyar Szó daily of Novi Sad, the fraud was unveiled by the Russians. The newspaper quoted Nikolai Fyodorov Russian agriculture minister, who said that according to the informations of the Ministry “in recent times Serbian labeled meat products arrived to Russia from Croatia, Spain and Hungary.” (Markovics Annamária, MTI)
