The State Fiscal Service wants to introduce trade regulations in the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) zone in eastern Ukraine, according to the service's First Deputy Head Serhiy Bilan.

"It's an extremely complicated problem from the legislative point of view," he said at a press conference.

According to him, the State Fiscal Service, jointly with the Security Service of Ukraine and border guards, recently blocked a convoy of 170 trucks which was attempting to illegally cross the contact line in the ATO zone.
