Brazil has been asked by the EU to stop exporting meat. It currently imports products into the 28 member states. However, the government refused.
The Brazilian government has flatly rejected the EU proposal. The reason for what is happening is the arrest of more than 30 people on March 17. Brazilian federal authorities have accused the detainees of participating in a large-scale criminal group that sold expired food and, most of all, meat.
The investigation has been going on for two years. The major Brazilian meat production companies, which sell their products both on the domestic and foreign markets, have been charged with criminal activity.
The crime is large-scale, as the criminals worked under the auspices of the supervisory authorities of the Brazilian Ministry of Agriculture. They issued them certificates against bribes, skipping the inspection of the products.
European diplomats are outraged that Brazil sees the incident as a PR campaign and does not pay attention to people's health. In order to avoid a total ban on exports, the country has been kindly requested to suspend exports while the inspection is ongoing.
A possible ban would take a long time to be lifted, while meat sales could be resumed at any time if Brazil stopped supplying itself. However, the Brazilian government has stopped deliveries from 21 meat packaging sites that are being investigated by federal police. At the same time, however, the authorities are adamant that the case is isolated.
The EU has already been forced to impose some restrictions on imports, but they will not be the last. The largest consumer of meat imports from Brazil, China, has already stopped importing Brazilian meat as a precautionary measure.
