“Ukraine will sign an agreement on a free trade zone with Canada… Russia closed its market to our goods, but Canada is ready to buy our machines and consumer goods,” Yatsenyuk said during the “10 Minutes with the Prime Minister” talk show, ZN.ua reported.

“We expect the top Canadian negotiator on the FTA deal to arrive here tomorrow and I hope we are now fully on track to signing it,” he added.
