Ukraine - old aircraft

There is an article on ch-aviation.com saying Ukraine is thinking of passing a law around the age of aircraft next year. Does anyone know more about what the aim of this is or what is planned to be in the new law ?

I am guessing it is to discourage some smaller Ukrainian airline (cough Motor cough Sich cough) from using aircraft over maybe 25 years old on standard passenger flights and hopefully move away from aircraft built under the Soviet era. Presumably this also means those of us who want to catch a ride on a Yak-40 will now have to make our way to Zaporizhiya sooner rather than later
