| Abstract: |
As Lactalis allegedly faces hundreds of lawsuits over a salmonella outbreak at the end of 2017, the President of France has reassured the European community that French products are safe. The outbreak was traced back to a facility in Craon, North-West France. French President Emmanuel Macron has hit out at dairy company Lactalis over a contamination scandal that saw at least 20 infants come down with salmonella. Speaking at a press conference in Rome on Thursday, January 11, the head of state said that sanctions would be taken if it turned out that the dairy giant’s ‘unacceptable’ practices leading up to the baby formula-contamination episode warranted them. |
