EU ambassador sure there will be no crisis between Ukraine and Russia
KYIV, September 10. /UKRINFORM/. Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine Jan Tombinski has said he believes that the current trade conflict between Ukraine and Russia will not lead to a crisis in relations between the two countries.
He said this on Tuesday during the presentation of the Ukraine-EU project “Stronger Together,” a Ukrinform correspondent reported.
“I’m convinced that there will be no crisis between Russia and Ukraine and that this crisis, trade conflict is not in Russia’s interests,” Tombinski said.
However, he believes that Russia’s negative decisions in relation to Ukraine will influence Russia’s relations with other countries, because these countries realize that Moscow could use political instruments in trade relations.
As reported, in July 2013, the Russian Federal Consumer Rights Service (Rospotrebnadzor) banned the supply of chocolate and candy produced at four Roshen plants in Ukraine.
