Slovakia, Ukraine agree grain trade system to replace ban -Slovak ministry

Slovakia and Ukraine's farm ministers have agreed to set up a licensing system for trading in grains, which would allow a ban on imports of four Ukrainian commodities to Slovakia to be lifted once the system is set up, the Slovak Agriculture Ministry said on Thursday.

Ukraine also agreed to halt a complaint over the import ban that it had filed against Slovakia with the World Trade Organisation (WTO), the Slovak ministry said in an emailed statement.
