The complaints did not come: the Ministry of Defense commented the scandal with poor quality stew for the Armed Forces

The Defense Ministry says that they do not check the quality of canning products that are supplied in the Armed Forces, because such inspection is carried out at the stage of production. The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine did not receive complaints from the military about the quality of the stew, which is referred to in the journalistic investigation of NGL. Media. Also, no supply was recorded without the specified quality certificate. The NV reported the state operator of the rear.

They stated that they do not check the quality of canned products that are supplied in the Armed Forces, and the quality of canned quality is controlled at the production stage. The department noted that the State Consumer Service is responsible for checking the quality of products.

"Food safety management and veterinary medicine selects control samples from the party, sends them for laboratory analysis and, in the case of a positive conclusion on consumption, issues a quality certificate for the supply of the respective batch," - said the state operator of the rear.

It is also noted that during August (the period referred to in the investigation of journalists), they did not receive complaints from the military regarding the quality of the products specified in the investigation. The rear operator also states that he did not record supply without a quality certificate. The state-owned rear operator plans to strengthen the quality of product quality and to digest the process of confirming the availability of quality certificates in the IT system-DOT-CHAIN.

"Those suppliers who have not added a certificate or have already exhausted the volume approved for supply will not be able to form a package of documents and ship the goods," the department added. Thus, on October 8, NGL. Media journalists after complaints from Ukrainian fighters for the quality of canned foods, who were supplied to them, turned to the laboratory and received evidence that the stew is not in accordance with the standards.

Experts explored the content of 8 canned foods from one batch that was handed over to the military, and found that instead of 59% of the meat with fat in canned food is only 22. 4%, while instead of "meat" there is skin and tendons there, which should not be at all. We will remind that on September 4 journalist Tatiana Nikolaenko reported that the military complain about food. Although the inspections were carried out by the Ministry of Defense, the quality of the military raises questions.
