Russia's agricultural watchdog, Rosselkhoznadzor, is imposing temporary restrictions on the supply of pork gelatin from the European Union, effective August 2, 2024. The move is in response to the critical African swine fever epizootic situation in the EU. The main suppliers of pork gelatin are Italy, Poland, Germany, and Belgium. In 2024, the EU reported 2,956 ASF outbreaks, with 218 in July. Rosselkhoznadzor has expressed concern over the lack of transparency from the EU about their epizootic situation and the lack of information on the safety of production controls in EU enterprises, highlighting past non-compliance of EU goods with the veterinary and sanitary requirements of the Eurasian Economic Union.
