Sayenko Kharenko has advised MHP on the specifics of applying autonomous trade measures, first introduced by the EU in June 2022 to support Ukraine’s economy.
According to Sayenko Kharenko, these ATMs suspend import duties, tariff quotas, entry prices for imports from Ukraine, and anti-dumping and safeguard measures. The regime was extended in 2023 and 2024 with a special safeguard mechanism for seven agricultural products, including sugar, eggs, and honey, proving crucial for Ukrainian producers under transport blockade conditions.
Earlier, Sayenko Kharenko was successful for MHP in arbitration proceedings in 2023 (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on February 9, 2023) as well as in 2021 (as reported by CEE Legal Matters on March 4, 2021).
The Sayenko Kharenko team included Partner Anzhela Makhinova and Associate Oleksandra Sandul.
