“In terms of food, we definitely don’t have a shortage,” RIA Novosti quotes him.
Thus, he answered the question about plans to include food products in the list of parallel imports.
Earlier, Manturov, in an interview with Izvestia, said that the volume of parallel imports in 2022 is projected at $20 billion.
On September 7, Manturov also announced that the parallel import mechanism would be extended for the whole of 2023.
