The genetically modified organisms were revealed in batches of Russian rapeseed and rapeseed oil delivered to China, declared the Head of Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance, Sergey Dankvert on September 15.

“The Chinese party informed us that they have found GMO. We started an investigation. We had several cases this year. One company exported rapeseed oil, and it was blocked in China. Then we sent grain and rapeseed from Omsk and China found GMO again” - S.Dankvert said.

Therefore, China warned Russian administration about possible ban on import of these products from Russia.

“When the claim had been received, we started our own investigation. We even checked the plant residues and revealed GMO in two regions (Jewish Autonomous Region and Omsk oblast)”, - S.Dankvert said.
“A half of declarations of conformity sent from Omsk was false. We need to create an investigating committee to deal with these declarations”, - S.Dankvert pointed out.
