As UNIAN reported earlier, Ukrainian owners of imported cars with foreign registration plates blocked traffic in the center of Kyiv on November 20 as part of a new large-scale protest campaign. They demand that recently passed bills on excise tax on passenger cars be amended along with a reduction in customs clearance costs for Ukrainians who have bought their cars abroad, in particular, in the European Union.

The public movement behind the protest campaign, NGO Auto Euro Sila, announced its indefinite "act of civil disobedience" in 46 cities and towns of Ukraine.
