After a 2016 bird flu outbreak in France, many countries stopped importing foie gras (a French pate made from duck or goose liver). Algeria, China, Egypt, Japan, Morocco, South Korea and Tunisia all put bans in place. In which Southeast Asian kingdom, whose capital is Bangkok, was it also banned?

Question

Accepted Answer

Thailand. Morocco was among the countries, along with Algeria, China, Egypt, Japan, South Korea, Thailand, and Tunisia, that banned French poultry exports including foie gras after a bird flu outbreak. Thailand joined the same ban, prompting France to spend about 220 million euros on new biosecurity rules.
