KIEV, June 2 – Russia no longer requires amendments to the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) Agreement between Ukraine and the European Union, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin said.
"Two weeks ago we had a meeting involving the European Trade Commissioner and the Russia Economy Minister. The main result of this meeting is that Russia doesn't demand amendments to the agreement any more. They understood that we'll move forward the implementation, and they don't demand a postponement for the full implementation of the FTA," Klimkin told journalists in Kiev on Tuesday.
He said Russia insists that the FTA implementation will have negative consequences for Russia.
