Russia causes Ukraine $125m of candy damage

Russia's recent move to ban the imports of products of Ukrainian confectionery company Roshen can deprive Ukraine of $125 million. 

The amount includes social contributions, payment of salaries and tax deductions, Eugene Vovchanovsky, the director for the company development said.

Meanwhile, officials at Roshen insist that the products of the company fully  meet safety criteria. The company received adequate documents from the Ukrainian Institute of Hygiene and Medical Ecology of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine, as well as from the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Service of Ukraine.
