Yulia Osipova: mandatory labeling of milk will never be expedient
- First of all, counterfeit goods are always falsified. And “Mercury” is engaged in falsification. Second, only government can perform functions of state control. Third, according to article 3, paragraph 8, article 7, paragraph 3 of Federal law No. 294 of 26.12.2008, labeling violates the rights of legal entities, because it is unacceptable to charge a fee for control measures. Fourth, the labeling violates Government decree No. 984 of 02.12.2009 on the list of paid public services and the calculation of their cost. And only in the last lines, the stated goal - control of counterfeit goods in the system of the CATD is not achievable due to the ease of registration and receipt of stamps by hackers, - said Yulia Osipova.
According to the expert, labeling in case of its implementation will work psychologically on removal of dairy producers.
- While everyone will figure out how not to pay and equip there (although all this is already written in the manual), they will already leave the market. This is a complete profanation of control. In other words, labeling contributes to the strategy of deindustrialization of the country under the laws of sabotage during periods of military confrontation, taking into account that the beneficiaries of labeling are not all citizens of the Russian Federation. If “Mercury” works, solving the tasks for which it was created, - falsification and at the same time counterfeit, which is always a falsification, then representatives of the CATD will attribute good luck to themselves, - Yulia Osipova said.
According to her, the information previously announced by the CATD about the readiness to finance the participation of enterprises in the pilot experiment is good news.
- Mandatory labeling can be considered illegal. Due to the fact that the decree was signed by the retired Prime Minister, there is no technology to cancel the "last order of the commander" (according to Sun-Tzu) without a blow to his reputation. So, for the time being the new Prime Minister pushed it, and there was no time to understand it. Pandemic. However, Mishustin knows how to count money like no one else and knows where it comes from the state, what share of taxes from each industry is and knows a lot about digitalization and control. The fact that the CATD puts pressure on the consumer, using the fact that the consumer does not distinguish between the counterfeit and falsified product, trying even to purchase the consumer, stating the possibility to earn on scanning also confirms the weakness of their position, - said the representative of the company, stressing that dairy producers and processers should not take the position of a victim or even defensive.
- We need to unite and go further, seeking to replace the word "mandatory" with "voluntary", - summed up Yulia Osipova.
