False foodstuffs are imported in Armenia mainly from Turkey, Head of
the Consumers' Rights Protection public organization Abgar Yeghoyan
said at a Roundtable on the topic "Food safety problems and the main
ways to overcome them," Friday.
A. Yeghoyan said the monthly monitoring by the organization exposed
some violations in the Armenian food market. In particular, the
violations were connected with unmarked and expired products, false
foods and products having no certificates. The laboratory examinations
conducted by the organization revealed colibaccilus in 5 types of
imported products. Last year the Ministry of Agriculture amended the
Law on safety of foodstuffs. The parliament approved it in November
2006. Under the given law, the parliament approved an act providing
for confiscation and utilization of dangerous food and flavours from
the market.
The event organizer was the Consumers' Right Protection public
organization jointly with the World Bank program of assistance to
state agricultural reforms.
