Japanese cars banned from entering Russia (130 ‘radioactive’ )

"More than 130 used cars from Japan were denied access to Russia last year as consumer watchdog agency Rospotrebnadzor remains concerned about the contaminated water leaks at Japan’s crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant.

Strict control of all cargo, arriving from Japan, will continue in 2014 as well...

In 2013, Russia has banned 165 batches of contaminated goods from entering the country. There were mainly used cars – 132, and spare parts for vehicles – 33,” the statement said."
