Yatseniuk calls for increase in quotas on Ukrainian agricultural products on EU market
Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk has said he believes that it is important to raise before the European Union the question of increasing quotas on Ukrainian agricultural products supplied to the EU markets.
"The key task for us is the implementation of the Association Agreement with the EU and a free trade area with the EU. Now we have already increased exports to the EU by 12%, but this is only the first step," he said, while presenting a government action program in Kyiv on Tuesday.
He noted that to date "we have used almost all agricultural quotas, which we have with respect to Ukrainian agricultural products that are supplied to the EU countries."
"And now we need to think how to increase the quotas and how to enter the markets of the EU and other countries," Yatseniuk said.
