In fact, Ukraine already has access to the export of agricultural products in 340 trade directions, in the next five years it is planned to open 240 more. For this, work is underway with more than 60 countries regarding products of plant and animal origin.

Implementation of EU requirements for Ukraine is now one of the priorities. But at the same time, it is important for Ukraine to defend the interests of Ukrainian business. In particular, the current tasks include maintaining stable trade with partner countries, removing barriers that prevent exports, removing restrictions on the export of certain types of products, and simplifying certification and transit procedures.
