The State Service for Food Safety and Consumer Protection sent a letter to the Directorate General for Health and Food Safety of the European Commission to consider the possibility of exporting Ukrainian potatoes to the countries of the European Union.
This was discussed during a meeting of the head of the State Service for Service Vladislava Magaletskaya with representatives of the Ukrainian Association of Potato Producers, the ministry said in a statement.
“Ukraine is fulfilling its obligations under the Association Agreement between Ukraine and the EU, in particular, on the adaptation of national legislation to the pan-European one in terms of potato growing. We will continue to make every effort to open the EU market for Ukrainian potato growers, ”said Vladislava Magaletska.
Currently, the issue of the need to appoint an inspection of European experts in 2022 to open the export of Ukrainian potatoes to the EU is being discussed with European colleagues.
