Ukraine to buy more Norwegian seafood

Acting Prime Minister of Ukraine Mykola Azarov said that Ukraine will buy more seafood from Norway.

"Ukraine is planning to increase its purchases of seafood from Norway. Living standards are gradually improving in Ukraine, and the consumption of seafood, which is necessary for a healthy life, should be increased," he said at a meeting of the government on Wednesday (Dec 5).

According to Azarov, Ukraine, in turn, will increase grain exports to Norway. He added that Ukraine is also interested in attracting Norwegian investments and using its advanced technologies in the oil and gas sphere.
