The Rada has approved laws raising fines and jail sentences for people convicted of cutting and exporting raw logs. Smuggling logs across the border can draw jail terms up to 5 years. Illegal logging on a large scale can lead to fines up to $210,000 and jail terms up to 3 years. Seeking to promote its own furniture and wood products industry, Ukraine banned exports of raw logs 18 months ago.
