USA HALTS ALL CHINA MILK IMPORTS


The USA Food & Drug Administration issues an import alert:


"DETENTION WITHOUT PHYSICALEXAMINATION OF ALL MILK PRODUCTS, MILK DERIVED INGREDIENTS AND FINISHED FOODPRODUCTS CONTAINING MILK FROM CHINA DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF MELAMINE AND/ORMELAMINE ANALOGS"


Measures such as this are a dangerous sign of renewed protectionism in America and it is no surprise that the FDA announced the alert as the USA racked up a record $27.8 billion trade deficit with China last month.
