One of the largest processing plants fish in the Russian Federation Murmansk fish processing plant stopped work due to the lack of raw materials due punishment, said Tuesday its Director Mikhail Tooth. " Stop all work, because the supply of live fish from Norwegian vessels stopped because of penalties. We had already sent letters to the Chairman of the RF government, But received no reply. If the problem will not be solved, we will have to file a lawsuit against the government of the Russian Federation ", - noticed the Tooth, his words leads to ITAR-TASS. Technologically Murmansk fish processing can only take live fish with tankers that come from the field. However ivorybill fishing in the Russian Federation in practice is not conducted due to technical backwardness of the Russian fishing fleet, drew the attention of the Tooth. According to the Russian Federal fisheries Agency, the Russian Federation is working only two ivorine vessel. Because of this raw material, the company purchased through the mechanism of the Norwegian auctions Norges Sildesalgslag and Norges Rafisklag by which contracts for the purchase in the 2nd part of 2014, cod, capelin, saithe, haddock and herring in the amount of 31 thousand Tons. The Russian Federation considers ivorybill craft a promising direction, But this technology is not always justified for production of aquatic bioresources at a considerable distance from the place of the onshore processing, said ITAR-TASS Deputy head of Federal Agency for fishery Vasily Sokolov. The Ministry is ready to take measures to increase the domestic supply of fish for the onshore processing in the Murmansk region. The administration of the region appealed to the Russian Federation with a request to increase coastal quota that will accelerate the saturation of the factories with raw materials, he said. Recall that relations between Russia and the West deteriorated in connection with the situation in Ukraine. At the end of July, the EU and the US from point penalties against private individuals and organizations turned to measures against entire sectors of the Russian economy. In response, Russia restricted imports of food items, including fish, from Norway, EU, USA, Australia and Canada. on August 20th in the list of prohibited import goods have been exceptions. So, for example, in the Russian Federation once again allowed to import live fish for breeding (smalt), However, commodity live fish remained in the list.
