Onishchenko comments on return of Georgian wine to Russian market

08.02.2013 (Hvino News) Russia's chief sanitarian Genady Onishchenko says the return of Georgian wine to the Russian market is not an important issue for Russia.

"May be it is important for them, i.e. for Georgia, but for us it is a very insignificant fact," Onishchenko said, adding Georgian wine product might occupy only 4% of the total of the Russian market, which in fact meant nothing.

Onishchenko commented on his recent meeting with Georgian agriculture ministry delegation, who discussed the process of return of Georgian wine and mineral waters to Russia. He confirmed that several groups of experts would arrive in Georgia soon to inspect the wine factories and give licenses to the company for importing their product to Russia.
