Ukraine has imposed new economic sanctions against Russia banning supplies of certain groups of goods and introducing special duties, Prime Minister Vladimir Groisman said at a cabinet meeting on Wednesday.

Axar.az reports citing RIA Novosti.

"Those are tit-for-tat measures - embargo and special duties on Russian goods," he said, adding that the restrictions will be applied to those goods that "are fully produced" in Ukraine or may be replaced with alternative supplies.

According to First Deputy Prime Minister Stepan Kubiv, the ban concerns certain types of "industrial goods, mineral fertilizers, agriculture products, transport vehicles, plywood and others."
