This was announced by Ukrainian Ambassador to Canada Andriy Shevchenko in an interview on one of the Ukrainian TV channels.

According to him, the FTA gives Ukrainian producers unimpeded access to 98% of the Canadian market.

At the same time, the export of certain goods will be duty-free only within the established quotas.

In turn, this applies to 108 items, in particular wheat, barley, eggs, beef, pork and other agricultural products.

"This is a historic moment, which sums up the colossal stratum of the work of our diplomats and politicians," said Shevchenko.

Recall, as reported by the wound "URA-Inform", thanks to the free trade zone (FTA) between Ukraine and the European Union, the level of trade in the first quarter of 2017 increased by 30%.
