Greek peach exports have increased, in regard to quantities, despite the Russian embargo.

Greece will lose about 178 million euro over Russia’s ban on imports of Greek agricultural produce, according to New Democracy MEP, Manolis Kefalogiannis.

The Foreign Ministry will immediately establish a working group for the monitoring of Greek exports to Russia, the administration of relevant issues which emerge, as well as the coordination of all pertinent actions. The working group, which will consist of ministerial officials, as well as sectoral and export representatives, will also be exploring any expansion prospects to new markets, for Greek export goods.
