Russian Vice Prime Minister Arkady Dvorkovich said that the country is not planning to lift the embargo on imports of vegetables and fruits from the European Union, RIA Novosti reports.
Alexey Pushkov, the head of the State Duma Committee for International Relations, said in early April that Russia had considered lifting the embargo for Greece, Cyprus and Hungary.
Greece sent a letter to the Russian agricultural surveillance agency Rosselkhoznadzor, requesting a lifting of the embargo on agricultural products.
