Ukraine will cancel protectionist measures on imports of goods when the situation with the balance of payments improves, Ukrainian Premier Mykola Azarov has said.

"The limitations are of a temporary character. When the situation with the balance of payments improves, we'll cancel [them]," he said at a meeting with representative of business in Luxemburg on Tuesday.

Azarov said that the limiting measures introduced in the country have affected a very restricted number of imported products, and they have already positively influenced the country's balance of payments.
