Preparation for the lifting of the ban on the sale of agricultural land is at full speed in Ukraine. MPs have finally gotten to the issue of the hundreds of thousands of hectares that officially belong to no one, are not included in the state cadastre, with no one paying taxes for this land or bearing responsibility for what takes place there

After the verdict of the European Court of Human Rights in the case Zelenchuk and Tsytsyura v. Ukraine, the working group for land reform stepped up its game. The Agrarian Committee of the Verkhovna Rada began laying the groundwork for a free land market. The abolition of the moratorium is just a matter of time now.
