(RIA Novosti) - Russia will impose stricter demands on imported and domestically produced alcoholic beverages, the health minister said Monday. "The tougher regulations will apply to Russian producers and importers under the new law on the alcohol trade," Mikhail Zurabov said. Russia suspended imports of Moldovan and Georgian wine March 27, following hygiene concerns raised by the country's chief doctor, Gennady Onishchenko, who said the wines failed to meet numerous health and safety regulations. Zurabov said the quality of alcoholic drinks that Russia imports is often far from satisfactory, and that the purpose of this ban was to stop Moldovan and Georgian winemakers using prohibited pesticides and technologies and to make them produce high-quality drinks. Zurabov said his ministry was planning a serious assault on the problem, as 35,000 people die every year of alcohol poisoning in Russia. |
