Russia's food safety watchdog has said the Chinese customs office found coronavirus traces on the packaging of 13 batches of poultry products from companies in three different Russian regions that are part of the Cherkizovo brand.
“According to Chinese law, import declarations for products from these companies will be temporarily suspended for four weeks from 3 February 2021,” the state-run watchdog, Rosselkhoznadzor, said in a statement, adding it would launch its own investigation.
