The United Kingdom is considering introducing additional measures to block imports of Russian-origin seafood processed in China should it observe any significant increase in supply, a government minister said.
Mark Spencer, UK Minister of Food, Farming and Fisheries, made the comment in response to a question about whether the UK would follow the United States in closing a loophole that allows the import of Russian-origin fish processed in a third country.
“It’s something that certainly we are considering,” Spencer told reporters on the sidelines of the Norway-UK Seafood Summit in London.
