(The FINANCIAL)- After 5 years of an embargo on Georgian wine, Russian sanitary watchdog Rospotrebnadzor says that the main Georgian export products of wine and mineral water may return to the Russian market soon. “Everything depends on the Georgian producers,” said Gennady Onishchenko, Head of Rospotrebnadzor. It seems however that the Georgian Government is not enthusiastic about supporting wine export to Russia, which is considered the number one political enemy of Georgia.
Unlike Russia’s successful energy, finance and food distribution businesses in Georgia, Georgian export to Russia has been experiencing its worst times.
