"In August, the Federal State Budgetary Institution 'Primorsky Interregional Veterinary Laboratory' subordinated to Rosselkhoznadzor conducted studies of 443 samples of different fishery products obtained in fishing subzones of several Russian regions. There were no positive results [of possible contamination]," the watchdog stated. In August, the Russian interregional laboratory conducted 1,272 tests of fish products including cod, flounder, halibut as well as minced meat, canned food, crab, shellfish and others, and increased control measures after Tokyo's decision to release treated water from the Fukushima NPP, the statement read. On August 24, Japan started dumping treated waste water from the nuclear plant into the Pacific Ocean, despite strong opposition from China and other countries in the region. Beijing responded by suspending Japanese seafood imports. Tokyo, for its part, vowed to use tools within the World Trade Organization rules to respond to the ban.
