The Trade Minister says the Government's latest tariffs on Russian goods are aimed at putting a stop to Russia imports. New Zealand has introduced a 35-percent tariff on Russian goods. Infometrics analysis – released exclusively to Newstalk ZB – shows it would add almost 700-thousand dollars to the cost of Russia imports each month. Trade Minister Damien O'Connor told Mike Hosking introducing tariffs is much easier than introducing an import ban. “It’s a huge in cost on anything coming in from Russia, it’s a more simple way of doing it than having a ban which would have to list all the separate products.” LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information. |
