KIEV, August 28 (RIA Novosti) -Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko signed a decree banning the export of military equipment and dual-use military goods to Russia.
The decree, No. 691/2014, published on the Ukrainian president’s official website on August 27, orders the Ukrainian Cabinet of Ministers to take measures “to stop exporting to Russian Federation the military equipment and dual-use military goods” with the exception of “space equipment, used for research and peaceful uses of outer space in the frameworks of international space projects.”
The decree approves the decisions of the Ukrainian National Security and Defense Council, that has been in force for several months. In March, Ukraine’s state-owned defense conglomerate Ukroboronprom barred all shipments of military goods to Russia.
