Even stricter rules apply to the import of Ukrainian honey, eggs and poultry

The European Parliament approved the renewal of trade measures for Moldova and Ukraine, but in the case of the latter, amendments were made to protect farmers. Regarding Moldova, the trade liberalization measures were approved by a simple vote, while the situation in Ukraine was more complicated due to the Russian invasion.

With the vote, the European Parliament sent the Ukrainian draft back to its specialist committee to coordinate with the member states.
