Groysman says Ukraine's cooperation with IMF "constructive"

Ukraine's Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman has called the country's cooperation with its key creditor – the International Monetary Fund (IMF) -- constructive, adding that all disputed issues have been resolved.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UAA1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"We have resolved all the issues in the 'Government-IMF' framework. And it has been a constructive cooperation," Groysman said during a cabinet meeting.

As UNIAN reported earlier, Ukraine and the IMF have been cooperating in the framework of the four-year Extended Fund Facility program worth a total of $17.5 billion. It was reported that the two sides had already agreed a wide range of issues under the second program review, including various aspects of monetary, banking and anti-corruption policies, the pension reform and the privatization process. However, the memorandum which would outline the parties' further obligations has not been signed yet. The IMF's Executive Board meeting on the Ukrainian issues is scheduled for July.
