10 3. Challenges for implementation of DCFTA i. Adjustment costs As in any free trade agreement, there will be winners and loser; i.e., not all sectors will benefit Structural impact: Winners: Agriculture, textiles, metallurgy But: Possible problems for machine building ii. Benefits will only materialize in the medium and long term Time perspective is a challenge, given the short-term orientation of the country iii. New challenge: Relations to Russia 10
11 4. Ukraine and the Russian-led customs union As of today: Ukraine has a free trade agreement with CIS countries, including Russia Offer from Russia: Ukraine should join the customs union Problems: Customs union is not compatible with DCFTA EU Customs union has a very high level of protection; average import tariff of Russia is 9.5% (Ukraine: 2.7%) Joining customs union means a step back towards protectionism Exports Imports GDP Impact of joining the customs union on Ukraine -4.6% -4.3% -3.7% Source: German Advisory Group and IER Kiev Russian offer is not attractive for Ukraine 11
12 5. Concluding remarks DCFTA is expected to have a very positive impact on Ukraine: More foreign trade, both exports and imports Better business climate and more foreign investment Modernisation of economy Higher GDP DCFTA creates new opportunities for EU companies: For trade: Especially in agriculture, textiles and energy But also for investment in Ukraine 12
