Ukrainian PM vows tit-for-tat response to Russian trade restrictions
Kiev will retaliate any trade restrictions imposed by Russia over Ukraine’s free trade zone with the European Union by taking tit-for-tat measures, Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said Wednesday, according to RIA Novosti.
“As soon as Russia imposes trade restrictions on Ukraine, we will introduce mirror-like measures immediately,” Yatsenyuk said.
Ukraine's prime minister has already claimed Kiev might stop trade with Russia.
In July Yatsenyuk said that Ukraine "should be ready for an almost absolute restriction of trade with Russia."
