 Lyudmila Slaboshpitskaya, the chief editor of the "Mahaon Ukraine" publishing house, said that introduction of those quotas can harm native publishing houses as well.

Oleksandr Afonin
Highly respected Viktor Andriyovich! Ukrainian Association of book publishers and distributors addresses you with a question that needs your immediate personal intervention, because, as the experience shows, this problem can totally overcome your Decree “About some measures for development of book publishing business in Ukraine” (March 21, 2006) and lead to a serious crisis in one of the branches of publishing business – book trade, which is in very critical condition already. |  |
|  | |
| |  | |  |  |  | The Fund for Central and East European Book Projects (CEEBP) in Amsterdam and the International Renaissance Foundation (IRF) in Kyiv have in the past three years made an effort to improve the infrastructure of the book trade in the Ukraine. Now that this project is coming to its final stage it is worthwhile to publicly sum up the achievements and, more importantly, to present a roadmap for the years ahead. |  |
