As of January 25, 2024, Russia has imported 4.2 million edible eggs from Azerbaijan, following a decision in November 2023 to open the Russian market to this product. This was discussed in a phone conversation between Sergei Dankvert, head of Rosselkhoznadzor, and Goshgar Takhmazli, head of the Food Safety Agency of Azerbaijan, who both see potential for increased trade in agricultural products. Azerbaijan is a key exporter of vegetables and fruits to Russia, while Russia provides potatoes to Azerbaijan.
