Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman has thanked Moldova for refusal to impose restrictions on exports from Ukraine in 2017.

"I want to thank you, Prime Minister, for making the decision after our appeal to lift trade restrictions," Groysman said at a meeting with Prime Minister of Moldova Pavel Filip in Kyiv on Monday.

Groysman called on Moldova to consider Ukraine as a trade partner. He said that Ukraine is ready to expand mutually beneficial economic cooperation with Moldova.

As reported, on May 13, 2016 the decision of the government of Moldova dated May 6, 2016 imposing measures to protect the domestic market took effect. Until the end of 2016 low quotas for exports of Ukrainian goods and customs duties of 20-20% were introduced.
