client/title.list_title
The UK says it will extend tariff-free trade with Ukraine on almost all goods until 2029, providing further favorable trade terms in the wake of Russia's invasion
Reuters reports this.
The UK Department of Business and Trade has announced that duty-free trade will be extended for all goods for 5 years, with the exception of eggs and poultry, which will be extended for 2 years.
In addition, British firms will also benefit from the abolition of tariffs for exports to Ukraine.
"This agreement provides much needed long-term economic support to Ukraine, its businesses and people – critical to its recovery," junior trade minister Greg Hands said, adding Britain's support would continue "for as long as is needed.”
- Polish Agriculture Minister Czesław Siekierski says he is "categorically against" expanding free trade with Ukraine.
