The press service of the Ukrainian president reported on Monday that the convention and the protocol to it were signed in Kyiv on September 4, 2013.

"The document is an important step in expanding the bilateral contractual and legislative base between Ukraine and Malta. It would help to deepen cooperation in trade, economic and investment spheres, in particular via reducing mutual tax obstacles," the press service said.
