Such restrictions are often seen as politically motivated, although Russia denies that.

NATO member Turkey and Russia have complex relations, sometimes cooperating despite an array of sticking points. Ankara has angered recently Moscow by supplying Ukraine with Bayraktar TB2 combat drones.

In a statement, the Rospotrebnadzor watchdog said that 60,000 tonnes of grapes and 10,000 tonnes of pomegranates from Turkey had been barred entry.
