KIEV, Nov. 4 – Britain's exit the European Union (Brexit) could indirectly weaken the Ukrainian economy and the economies of other countries from the region where the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development operates, EBRD Chief Economist Sergei Guriev said.

"Indirect impact will be much larger than direct impact… it is not catastrophic but I think we should be aware it is not trivial," he said at a press conference on Thursday.
