You're reading: Ukraine drafts protective measures for trade with Russia, Kyiv says

Ukraine is preparing a document on protective trade measures which might be used in the event of a tougher trade regime with Russia but for now there is no list containing 94 product groups, said Valeriy Piatnytsky, Ukraine's Deputy Minister for Economic Development and Trade.

 “When you say 94 (product groups)… There is no such list, nor is there a list of 32 (product groups). We are working on a package which then might or might not be used,” he told reporters on Sept. 16.

Earlier media reports said that Ukraine is planning to introduce restrictions against Russia on 94 product groups, worth around $3 billion in total.
