EU reportedly agrees on extending free trade with Ukraine with more limitations

On 8 April 2024, representatives from key European Union institutions agreed to extend the free trade agreement with Ukraine, which includes stricter restrictions on imports of certain agricultural products.

According to Rikard Jozwiak, an editor at Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty in Brussels, the Council of the European Union, the European Commission, and the European Parliament agreed upon the new terms of the trade agreement with Ukraine. The new conditions still need to be separately voted on by the European parliamentarians.
