This is reported by the Economic Development and Trade Ministry of Ukraine on its Facebook page. "The European Union is Ukraine's main trading partner, accounting for 41% of our foreign trade in goods. This is a positive result of the Free Trade Area Agreement, which came into force on January 1, 2016. The trade turnover between Ukraine and the EU has increased by 6% for the first nine months of this year, while our exports have increased by 4.4%," the statement reads.
