Senator from the Kurgan region Sergey Lisovsky suggested recognizing Danone and Wim-Bill-Dann as foreign agents Foreign agricultural producers Danone and Wim-Bill-Dann should be recognized as foreign agents operating on the domestic market in foreign interests. This was stated by a member of the Federation Council from the Kurgan region Sergei Lisovsky. During the speech in the Kurgan regional Duma, Lisovsky said that Danone and Wim-Bill-Dann are defending the interests of the international corporation Pepsi-Cola, although they are members of the National Union of Milk Producers (Soyuzmoloko). "A new problem is the appearance of foreign agents in agricultural unions. In "Soyuzmolok" - this is Danone, in "Wimm-Bill-Dann", - said Lisovsky, he is quoted by Znak. com. According to him, at meetings in the government of the company are presented as domestic producers, but in fact they lobby interests of foreign companies to the detriment of Russian. "I appealed to the Justice Ministry with a statement on the recognition of these unions by foreign agents, so that government agencies understand with whom they work," - quotes Lisovsky Ura. en.

The senator also recalled the existence of an association of animal feed producers, where, he said, foreign companies such as Mars and Nestle. According Lisovsky, these companies prevent the ban on the supply of bone flour to Russia, which could be supported by domestic livestock.
