The Cabinet of Ministers has approved an expanded list of Russian goods banned from being imported into the territory of Ukraine, Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said during a government meeting on Wednesday.
Yatsenyuk said that an updated and expanded list included more than 70 headings.
As UNIAN reported earlier, on January 10, Ukraine imposed an embargo on the import of 30 commodity items from Russia in response to similar actions of the Russian side. The ban covers food products, vodka, tobacco and chemical products, as well as railway equipment. In addition, Ukraine imposed import duties on Russian imports at rates varying in the range of 1.5-19% with a transition period of three-five years.
