ROSSELHOZNADZOR RECOGNIZES TRANSNISTRIA AS SEPARATE STATE

The Russian Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance (RosSelhozNadzor) has classified unrecognized Transnistrian Moldovan republic (PMR) as a separate state, just like Moldova, Belarus or France, placing it in the alphabetical order between the Portugal and Puerto-Rico in the new registry of Russia’s trade partners on the RosSelhozNadzor’s official website.

On the personal page of the PMR on the website a list of Russian enterprises, which underwent the veterinary and sanitary examination for compliance to Transnistria’s requirements was published.

These are Nestle Russia company (Moscow), specialized in importing, storing and selling ice-cream, the “Dmitrogorsk milk factory” in Tver oblast (producing, processing, selling of milk and dairy products) and “Katran” (Astrakhan), which is engaged in producing, storing and selling of canned fish.

In phytosanitary sector the information has not been published yet, but earlier the RosSelhozNadzor allowed the supplying of fruit from Transnistria, while in Moldova it limited to just several enterprises as experiment.
