KIEV, Nov. 26 – The Agriculture and Food Ministry of Belarus has denied there are problems which make it difficult for Ukrainian companies to receive sanitary certificates and it does not see any reason for Ukraine to introduce duties on Belarusian products.

"It's hard to name this retaliatory action. We've introduced certification for all countries, not violating the law, not for the concrete country. No one, apart from Ukraine, has introduced restrictions against Belarus. All companies come and receive certificates," Agriculture and Food Minister of Belarus Alexei Bogdanov told reports at the Milk Business 2015 conference in Kiev on Thursday.
