Ukraine to lift Polish meat import embargo
22:35
Poland and Ukraine have reached an agreement on lifting the Ukrainian embargo on Polish meat imports, Agriculture Minister Marek Sawiski said on Tuesday. He was in Kiev for talks with his Ukrainian counterpary Ihor Shvaika.
The agreement comes into force on June 17, Sawicki said.
Ukraine imposed an embargo on Polish beef imports in 2007. A similar move toward pork import was made in February 2014 after two wild boar infected with the African swine flu virus were found in Poland.
