Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan expressed concerns over the quality of cheese sold at Armenian markets.

“Six months ago, a control service held monitoring in dozens of shops and the results were deplorable,” PM Sargsyan said in his remarks during a government’s sitting on March 24. “Food safety is one of priorities of Armenia-EU cooperation and a great deal of work is to be done here.”

The Prime Minister also stressed the necessity of a checkup twice a year.
