By: The EU is set to reimpose tariffs on Ukrainian sugar and egg imports from Friday, using an "emergency brake" designed to appease farmers who protested across the bloc earlier this year, Reuters reported, citing the Financial Times as its source on Thursday. The Financial Times, Reuters said, cited two people familiar with the matter.
Tariffs of 89 euros ($95.14) per tonne on eggs and sugar will be introduced starting on Friday, similar to the tariff that was reintroduced on Ukrainian oats last week that will last until June 2025, the newspaper said.
($1 = 0.9355 euros)
