PM: FTA with Canada opens $500 billion market to Ukrainian businesses

"The free trade agreement with Canada has been signed this week. It provides the access to the market with a turnover of $500 billion. We will wait for the ratification in the Parliament. However, I call on all the ministers to already start to work in this direction," Hroysman said. The Ukrainian PM outlined the key industries, which Ukraine and Canada will be able to cooperate in. "These include aircraft, railway, agricultural, pharmaceutical sectors. I want to draw attention of the State Fiscal Service, customs officials, representatives of sanitary control: it is necessary to prepare all the procedures so that import and export could occur in a comfortable environment. A separate question is the work of our trade missions. We need to sell Ukrainian goods abroad and direct currency into our economy," the PM added.
