KIEV (Sputnik) – Ukraine temporarily suspended supplies from 243 Russian companies with links to the eastern Ukrainian region of Donbas, the State Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) said Friday.

Its inspections uncovered that the majority of the firms legally cooperated with Kiev and were not subject to personal and economic sanctions against Russia that Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko signed into law last fall.

"At the conclusion of experts, Ukrainian producers are able to fully compensate for Russian imports. Accordingly, a decision was made to temporarily suspend the foreign economic activity of these Russian companies," the SBU press service said.

The SBU said it handed over materials to the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade.
