Russia says strengthens control over food imports from Turkey
Russia has strengthened control over food and agriculture imports from Turkey, the agriculture ministry said in a statement on Thursday.
The Russian government has told the food safety watchdog Rosselkhoznadzor to strengthen controls after the agriculture ministry`s research showed that about 15 percent of agriculture imports from Turkey did not meet Russian regulations, it added.

Turkey supplies mainly vegetables, fruits and meat products to Russia.
