Svoboda says trade war by Russia will prompt Ukraine to seek new markets

Svoboda says trade war by Russia will prompt Ukraine to seek new markets:

"The blocking by the Russian customs authorities of imports of Ukrainian goods will prompt the Ukrainian economy to modernize production and seek new markets, MP from the Svoboda All-Ukrainian Union Oleksandr Myrny has said.

"First and foremost, Russia demonstrates its true attitude towards us. Secondly, the owners of plants and enterprises at which the equipment is totally exhausted, including moral resources, will be obliged to turn to more modern technology. The use of new technologies will increase labor productivity, improve the quality of products and resolve serious environmental issues," he said in an interview with Interfax-Ukraine, while commenting on the blocking by Russia of imports of Ukrainian goods.

Myrny said that the equipment used at Ukrainian metallurgical enterprises is not used anywhere else in Europe."
