Introduction: Russian veterinary authorities are considering whether to impose restrictions on Finnish meat imports, as Finland has found the first case of BSE The decision to restrict the import of Finnish beef was made in Estonia A spokeswoman for the Russian Ministry of Agriculture said on December 18, 2001 that veterinary services had asked the Finnish Ministry of agriculture to provide comprehensive information on suspected cases But it has not been decided whether to impose restrictions Russia designated December 19, 2001 as a constitutional day and a public holiday It is not clear whether the import restrictions are for Finnish beef and live livestock only or for all meat products A few years ago, after Britain reported the first case of mad cow disease, Russia limited the import of British meat Similar restrictions apply to several other countries in the European region, where BSE has been reported.
