Russian customs officers, together with Rosselkhoznadzor, have detained several consignments of goods at the Belarusian-Russian border. Dog food and lawn grass seeds were being illegally transported into Russia, while strawberry seedlings were intended for Belarus.<\/p>\n

A vehicle carrying 4.5 tonnes of Italian dog food was stopped<\/a> in Russia\u2019s Pskov region. The goods were transported without veterinary accompanying documents, and the manufacturer\u2019s certification in Russia had been suspended since 2023. The cargo was returned to Belarus.<\/p>\n

In Russia\u2019s Bryansk region, Rosselkhoznadzor prevented the import of about 8 tonnes of lawn grass seeds from Minsk to the Moscow region. The driver did not have phytosanitary certificates for the cargo. The seeds were returned<\/a> to the sender.<\/p>\n

In the Smolensk region, Rosselkhoznadzor officers did not allow the export<\/a> of 21,000 strawberry seedlings to Belarus without phytosanitary certificates. The vehicle was returned to the place of loading, and the carrier was held administratively liable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
