Georgian Agriculture Minister to Visit Moscow

Georgian Prime Minister Zurab Nogaideli instructed Minister of Agriculture Mikheil Svimonishvili to visit Moscow and clarify the situation with imposing temporary restrictions on import of agricultural products from Georgia to Russia.
 
?We receive conflicting reports over imposing these restrictions. According to some information these restrictions are enforced, but there has not been a single case so far when these restrictions affected our products,? Prime Minister Nogaideli said at the government?s session on December 21.


The Russian side cited its decision by ?phytosanitary concerns? and violation of ?international and Russian sanitary requirements? by Georgia.


Georgian Minister of Agriculture Mikheil Svimonishvili said that Georgia exports its agricultural products to various countries, but ?the country faced no such problems in any of them.?
