The Ministry of Climate Change and Environment (MOCCAE) has denied what has been circulated among Jordanian media outlets with regards to UAE lifting the ban on imports of certain vegetables and fruits from the Kingdom of Jordan, saying that no decision has been issued in that regards by the UAE.
Last month, the Ministry had announced a decision to ban imports of vegetables and fruits from select countries with effect from May 15, 2017 as those products have been found to contain pesticide residues in excess of permissible limits.
The countries impacted by the ban included Jordan, Egypt, Oman, Lebanon and Yemen.
