Polish meat exports to Russia to resume in one week
"I am very happy. We have agreed on everything that we practically could," said Sawicki after the meeting. The Russian party agreed to lift the embargo on the day it signs a memorandum which will regulate the terms of exports and control in detail. Another issue discussed during the meeting was the recent discoveries of the bird flu virus on Polish farms. Alexei Gordeyev gave his assurances that the export restrictions of poultry will only relate to the regions where the virus was actually found, and will not encompass the whole country.
