The EU is Ukraine’s largest trading partner, accounting for 41% of all foreign trade last year

The EU is Ukraine’s largest trading partner, accounting for 41% of all foreign trade last year, Trade Representative Taras Kachka reports on Facebook. Russia and CIS countries play a diminishing role. Thanks to a near doubling of Ukraine’s exports to China last year, Ukraine now trades more with China than with the CIS countries. Ukraine’s imports from Russia fell by 35% last year, causing Russia to cede to Poland the position of Ukraine’s third largest trading partner, after China and Germany.
