Russian embargo - no disaster for Ukraine

Minister of Agriculture and Food Olexiy Pavlenko said that the Russian embargo "will have no catastrophic impact" on the agricultural sector of Ukraine."

According to him, trade turnover of agricultural products between Ukraine and Russia for 10 months of this year decreased by 73% and now amounts to 2% of the total exports of agricultural products.

Most agricultural products during this period Ukraine exported to Asia and the EU, said the Minister.
