The ban, which came into effect on 1st January,
seems to have been issued by the Kazakhstan Ministry of Agriculture but it’s
not clear why other than it’s a ban on road and air transport of goods subject
to veterinary control through Kazakhstan but they can carry out transport of
goods by rail.
It would appear, on the face of it, to be politically motivated rather
than genuine phytosanitary or biosecurity reasons, otherwise why would you
have a ban on air transportation and not rail?
