The right was granted following the work in Ukraine of the technical mission of the General Directorate of Protection and Control at the Ministry of Agriculture of Turkey in late April 2018.
"Turkish inspectors audited the state control system for beef production in Ukraine, as well as inspected slaughter enterprises that are interested in exporting their products to Turkey," the service said in a statement.
