Michael ONeill shared GMO Free USAs photo. GMO Free USA Russian President Putin has signed a GMO Labeling Liability Law that imposes fines of up to $5,300 on any businesses that fail to properly label genetically modified food ingredients in their products. In 2014, President Putin said that Russia must protect its citizens from overconsumption of products containing genetically modified organisms. Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev followed this with a statement that Russia has no intention to import GMOs, however there are still large quantities of GMO foods being imported in to Russia. Russian Minister of Agriculture Nikolai Fyodorov believes that Russia must remain a GMO-free country. At a meeting of deputies representing rural areas organized by United Russia, he said that the government will not “poison their citizens.” We may not agree with Russia on many things, but they have it right on GMOs.
