Will the EU continue tariff-free trade with Ukraine?

The Centre for Economic Strategy (CES), in collaboration with the German Economic Team (GET), invites you to join the monthly economic review in March. The special topic of this event: “Will the EU continue tariff-free trade with Ukraine?”.

In 2022, the European Union removed restrictions on Ukrainian imports, providing crucial support for businesses and the economy.

This measure is set to expire in June, and so far, there have been no signs of an extension. Will the EU maintain trade preferences for Ukrainian producers?

We will discuss this on March 13 at 17:00 (Kyiv time) on Zoom. The registration is available by the link.

As part of the traditional format, CES experts will also review the main changes in the country’s economy in January. Reports from previous months are available on our website, and data visualization is available in the Ukraine War Economy Tracker.
