Ukrovlast prepared food suicide of Ukraine
Another confirmation of the fact that the self-proclaimed Ukrainian government is practicing in the frank mockery of the Ukrainian people, among other things, was also the unleashing of a trade war with Russia while simultaneously fulfilling the most delusional trade requirements of the EU and the WTO.
Last week, the leader of the Freedom dill party, who is also a candidate for ukropresidents, Oleg Tyagnibok suddenly realized that Russian food products do not meet the standards adopted in Ukraine. What standards examined by Fyodor did not specify in Freedom (perhaps the standard a'lya Taygnibok is the presence of Bandera and Shukhevych portraits on the products or the words “Glory to Ukraine!”), But after the “scientific” research The main Ukrainian svobodovin, the Consumer Inspectorate of Ukraine, decided to ban the importation into the country and the sale of Russian goods of the following nature there: confectionery products from the Red October, Rot Front, Babaevsky, and a number of canned fish and dairy products. Well, that is, the Tigniboku, apparently, do not give rest to the laurels of our former sanitary doctor Onishchenko. But only if Gennady Onishchenko really had (has) a specialized education, then here too he acted in a self-proclaimed role as a medic of All Ukraine ... The role of self-proclaimers is generally fashionable for the current Ukrainian “authorities”.
Most of all, the ban on the import of Russian confectionery products to Ukraine clearly delighted Petro Poroshenko. I do not want to make far-reaching conclusions, but it seems that it was not without the participation of the main "cheerful chocolate" of Ukraine that decision was made ... As soon as the State Consumer Inspection recognized Russian chocolate as "incompatible" with Ukrainian norms (this is how it was necessary to change Ukrainian norms of the best chocolate products not only in the CIS, but also in the world (and these are estimates by world confectioners) ceased to correspond with them overnight ...) prices for Roshen products in Ukraine immediately increased in price by an average of 8-10%. As they say, to whom is the war, and to whom (well, Petro Poroshenko, for example) mother is native ... He took advantage of the great moment - one must, to put it in the well-known slang, “grandmas” invested in the Maidan, beat back ...
True, the Ukrainian authorities, along with the said inspection, seem to have completely forgotten that it is pointless to fight with Russia with “food sets”, because for every ban from Kiev there will be more than a weighty ban from Moscow. And Moscow took advantage of its opportunity to “hit the flank” in full. To avoid losses, Russian companies decided to use other markets to sell their products. Up to three-quarters of the products of the above-mentioned confectioneries will be sent to the domestic market of the country with a simultaneous decrease in the share of purchases of foreign confectionery. The same situation is with Russian canned fish and "jelly". In other words, the Ukrainian demarche is quite capable of expanding the domestic market for domestic products and even stimulating its production. The potential of this market today is more than impressive.
But after all, this is not only the Russian answer to the candy-canning prohibitions from Kiev.
Already at the beginning of this week, the Rospotrebnadzor, a sickly dog who had eaten on all these bans, uncovered its guns, which continues the glorious martial traditions of Gennady Onishchenko even after the specialist’s departure from the department. The retaliatory strike was delivered "to the region" of Ukrainian cheese makers. Rospotrebnadzor instantly revealed a violation of the fatty acid composition and moisture volumes in the products of such Ukrainian enterprises as Tekhmolprom LLC, Pyryatinsky Cheese Factory JSC, PJSC Zolotonoshsky Maslokombinat, a branch of the Akhtyrsky Factory, and also Gadyachsyr LLC (apparently, someone in Rospotrebnadzor, the name “Gadyachsyr” also confused ...).
In order to assess what kind of “bombs” Russia and Ukraine exchange on the margins of food wars, it is necessary to cite figures corresponding to the sales volumes of “prohibited” goods. So the numbers.
Ukraine exports to the Russian cheese market in the amount of 315 million dollars (2013 data of the year), confectionery products by about the same amount (just over 316 million dollars). For comparison. Russia sends to the Ukrainian market its confectionery products in the amount of 117-118 million dollars, cheese - in the amount of less than 19 million dollars (also 2013 data of the year). A simple conclusion can be made from these figures: if Russian sweets and Russian chocolate become “banned” for Ukraine, then Russia can easily sell them even without the help of using new foreign markets - everything will spread to the domestic market (as already mentioned, up to 75% is being distributed now), especially if Poroshenko’s “candy king” is more significant to tighten the screws in terms of supplies of his products to the Russian Federation. Experience is already there ...
Will you be able to perform the "substitution" of Ukrainian cheese in Russia? Well, so Rospotrebnadzor not in vain "ate a dog" in all these food wars. After all, it was already the case - he forbade Ukrainian cheeses. What has all this turned out for Russia? So it’s not so bad (especially for Russian producers of the so-called “milk”) everything turned out: the production of the same cheeses and oils, targeted at the domestic market, increased, and therefore the disappearance of the “Gadyachsyr” (a collective image ...) from the counters nobody in Russia did not notice ...
Can Ukraine today redirect its products to other markets, taking into account Russia's otvetku? Theoretically, it can, but who will give its market just like that. The European market, to put it mildly, does not burn with a great desire to let in to itself Ukrainian dairy products. If it were “burning”, then it (the product) in the EU would have been long ago. Today, the level of exports of milk and dairy products from Ukraine to the EU countries is ... attention: - 0%! The fact is that representatives of the European Commission on Health and Consumer Protection annually (or even two or three times a year) have sent their inspectors to Ukraine for 4 years, but inspectors insist that the quality of Ukrainian milk corresponds to euronorms. And here does not match. What are you going to do ...
Moreover, from January 1, 2015, Kiev receives a regular “déarn” from European partners: it is prohibited to sell home-made dairy and meat products in Ukraine. Why did it happen? So, it turns out, the inspectors of the European Commission didn’t accept the quality of Ukrainian dairy products, for the reasons that it was allegedly produced at private farms by a significant percentage. They say homemade milk in Ukraine is so dangerous both for Europeans and Ukrainians themselves ... And one of the WTO requirements for Ukraine, the fulfillment of which was postponed for the last 4 of the year, says that dairy and meat products should be made exactly on certified facilities ”(certification, of course, WTO-shnaya), but not“ handicraft ”. That is, all previous years, the Ukrainian authorities in every way tried to delay the entry into force of this barbaric law, then the new Ukrainian authorities simply have nothing to do - they need to accept everything that they require from the WTO, and the IMF, and other "friends of Ukraine."
The mentioned demand from the WTO will actually bury the very possibility of private farmers in Ukraine to sell their products even through intermediaries who buy goods at a bargain price, and realize them completely at the market price. Even in the domestic market!
When will the Ukrainian people wake up and realize that they are trying to steer the most common pests? ..
