Introduction: shortly after the announcement of lifting the ban on the import of American poultry meat, Russia recently cancelled the import license of American poultry meat and said that Russian importers must apply for a new import license As a result, the import of poultry in the United States has been put on hold indefinitely Russia's Ministry of Agriculture said it is necessary to reissue the license because of new changes in veterinary certificates and rules related to the import of poultry meat A spokeswoman for the Department of agriculture declined to say how long the new process would take, or when importers would be allowed to import chicken A spokesman for the U.S Embassy in Russia said it appeared that veterinary officials were using the import licensing system to restrict trade He also said he did not understand "what is the basis of their right to cancel the purchase of American poultry by (Russian) importers" Russia is the largest buyer of poultry in the United States The poultry trade between Russia and the United States brings us $60-70 million of export revenue to 38 states of the United States every year.
