Abstract

This article examines the recent trade conflict over poultry meat exports between the United States and Russia, the U.S. 's largest customer. A shipment of questionable poultry meat in late 1995 triggered the trade dispute. Russia embargoed U.S. poultry on 16 February 1996, alleging that the U.S. inspection system could not guarantee that imported poultry meat would meet Russian standards. An agreement signed on 25 March 1996 reconfirmed existing inspection criteria for exports to Russia and established a testing protocol for Salmonella and residues such as antibiotics, pesticides, and heavy metals, and resolved the trade dispute.
