According to the decree, donor blood products and its components are sold under the list and volume approved by the Cabinet.

As reported, on May 14 company with foreign investment PJSC Biofarma said that it intended to stop the production of drugs within seven days due to its inability to obtain government approval to export finished blood products under previously signed contracts. Biofarma Board Chairman Oleksandr Makovsky said that this concerns contracts for the supply of blood products worth a total of $7 million to Mongolia, Vietnam, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Belarus.
