The Ukrainian Cabinet has decided to restrict the supply of goods to the Crimean peninsula.

Speaking to journalists after a Cabinet meeting on Wednesday, Minister of Social Policy Pavlo Rozenko said that the decision, which was announced by Prime Minister Arseniy Yatseniuk at the beginning of the meeting, has been made. "Yes, we did (make the decision)," he said.
