The Dominican Minister of Agriculture, Ángel Estévez, received a delegation from the Russian Federation to discuss trade matters related to the purchase of Dominican fruit for export.
The Russian delegation expressed its interest in buying tropical fruits for processing and freezing so that they can be exported to that country without any loss in their properties, as they are considered as the best in terms of both taste and aroma by consumers worldwide.
They confirmed their interest in buying organic cocoa, mangoes, avocados and other fruits, as well as some vegetables, to pack and ship them to Russia and other nations in the region.
The Russian delegation’s members were Elena Lanskikh, Anatoly Musauv, Marina Ustinova and Elena Alekhina, who served as interpreter during the meeting.
