GENEVA, July 17 (Reuters) - The Philippines has suspended
meat imports from Germany after it was found to contain pork
bones from Poland, which has an outbreak of African swine fever
(ASF), the Philippines said in a filing published by the World
Trade Organization on Wednesday.
"There have been lapses in the inspection system of Germany
to ensure export of safe food for the Philippine market, and
there is a need to prevent the entry of the ASF virus into the
country to protect the health of the local swine population,"
the filing said.
