"I will initiate signing by Ukraine of a 3+1 agreement that would be based on the principles of free trade and the rules of the World Trade Organization," Yanukovych said. The politician emphasized that enlargement of cooperation would make it possible to preserve Ukraine's positions on those countries' markets. On November 29, the presidents of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan signed a package of documents on the creation of a Customs Union, which will start functioning on January 1 next year.
