Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has enacted law No. 1530-VII on the ratification of the financial agreement between Ukraine and the European Investment Bank (EIB).

According to a posting on the president's website, the implementation of the document aims at supporting the agricultural sector in Ukraine and allows raising EUR 400 million for 12 years with a four-year grace period.

"The funds will be sent to modernization of fishing industry and mariculture in Ukraine and implementation of projects in planting grain crops and oilseeds," reads the report.
