Ukraine is accusing Armenia and Mongolia of violation the rules
set by the World Trade Organization, reports local Ukrainian
Kommersant-Ukraine.

The newspaper mentions that Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy has found
out that the tax for Ukrainian cigarettes is levied in the countries
under discussion through discriminatory ways.

Further the paper mentions that Kiev is going to solve the problem
through WTO leverages that had earlier helped it defend its rights
in a similar case in Georgia.

According to Kommersant-Ukraine Ukraine’s Ministry of Economy has
already started unofficial consultations with Armenia and that it is
ready to hold similar consultation with Mongolia too.
