Ukraine's government bans coal exports

According to Ukrinform, Taras Melnychuk, a representative of the Cabinet of Ministers in the Verkhovna Rada, reported this on the messaging app Telegram.

"Amendments have been made to the volumes of quotas on goods, the export of which is subject to licensing, approved by Cabinet of Ministers resolution No. 1424 of December 12, 2021, in terms of a complete ban on the export of Ukrainian coal," he wrote.
