The import of rabbit meat from China imposed a temporary ban

The decision was taken due to poor performance checks on the content of antibiotics and bacterial contamination.

"However, cooperation between Russia and China in ensuring the safety of such products is constrained by the fact that to date has not been prepared to sign memorandums of cooperation on security in the supply of grain and its products in the field of veterinary supervision and with respect to product safety of vegetable origin ", – said in a statement Rosselkhoznadzor. In the first quarter of this year revealed more than Rosselkhoznadzor 3 thousand tons of substandard and dangerous grain products arriving from China, RIA Novosti reported.
