Ukraine plans to start negotiations on establishing a free trade zone with Canada, Turkey, Israel, the Persian Gulf States and West Africa. This was stated by the Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk at a cabinet meeting on Tuesday.
Yatsenyuk also said that Kiev intends to raise the issue of increasing quotas of agricultural exports to the EU in the framework of the agreement of free trade.
"We have used up almost all of the agricultural quotas that we have in relation to Ukrainian agricultural products supplied to the EU member states. And now we need to think how to increase quotas and win markets in both the EU and other countries," Yatsenyuk is quoted by RIA Novosti.
