Ukraine will not ban grain exports or impose export quotas

Ukraine does not plan to impose grain export quotas, said Viktor Yanukovych, the President of Ukraine.

According to the Head of the State, the country also does not plan to impose any grain export quotas.

Previously, Yanukovych had charged the government with analysing the country's current procedures for grain export customs clearance, and to take the required measures for improving these procedures.

At the same time, the president recommended to the General Prosecutor of Ukraine that all inspections for grain exports must be in compliance with the requirements of the Ukrainian legislation during customs procedures.
