Yeah, but what is wrong with meat from Turkey?
foot and mouth for example
Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is present in much of Turkey and its control is largely based on vaccination. The arrival of the FMD Asia-1 serotype in Turkey in 2011 caused particular concern, spreading rapidly westwards across the country towards the FMD free European Union.

Hence the banning of swill feeding to pigs....
