Russia wants to ban more food imports from Poland?

"Russia plans to extend its embargo on Polish food products", informed agriculture minister Andrzej Lepper.

Referring to a letter sent to the Polish chief veterinarian by the Russian side, Moscow wants to ban the imports of dairy products from Poland. Since autumn last year the Russian food market has been closed to Polish meat and plant products.

The agriculture minister said that his efforts to reach a compromise over the exports of Polish food to Russia may be hampered by the recent statement of deputy defence minister Antoni Macierewicz, in which he accused a group of former Polish foreign ministers of being Soviet spies.
