Russia bans 485 Norwegian seafood companies

Russia, one of the biggest importers of Norwegian fish, partially banned imports starting from Wednesday.

The ban affected 485 Norwegian companies, or 90 percent of the country’s registered suppliers to Russia.

The restrictions were imposed on certain types of fish, including herring, cod, haddock and capelin. The ban does not affect Norwegian salmon and trout, which Russia imports in large quantities, but quality control of such products will be toughened.
