KIEV, Oct. 28 – Ukraine is concerned about giving up export subsidies in bilateral trade and giving up the power to set import prices for agricultural goods if a free-trade zone agreement is enacted with the European Union, said Prime Minister Mykola Azarov following a meeting with European Commissioner for Trade Karel De Gucht on Thursday.

"I would like to draw your attention to a range of issues that have to be discussed. These issues are ones of principle for us and require solutions," Azarov said at the Kiev meeting.
