However, the relevant legislative initiatives have not been considered in parliament yet.
According to Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman, the IMF will postpone the allocation of the next tranche to Ukraine worth $1.9 billion due to the unpreparedness of the parliament to adopt a land reform before the end of the current session (July 15). The reform provides for the purchase and sale of agricultural land by Ukrainian citizens.
