According to the head of the Russian Ministry of Agriculture, Alexander Tkachev, the ministry intends to introduce a food embargo against the seven states that recently imposed sanctions against Russia: Georgia, Montenegro, Albania, Iceland, Norway, Liechtenstein and Ukraine.

"These are small countries, so they practically don’t influence the food market. Their share in the various fields is 3-5%," Tass cites him as saying.
