Ukraine and a key
loaner of our State - the International Monetary Fund - are implementing a cooperation
program and have no problems in the joint work, Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr
Groysman told to media people in London.
He stressed that recently
disseminated information on the possible postponement by the IMF to grant
Ukraine another tranche should not be treated as a proof of any problems.
"Let’s not
overreact in this situation. It is about reforms and pursuing reforms. We are
working on the pension reform to protect interests of Ukrainian pensioners, we
are working to increase the effectiveness of state-owned companies’ management
and to ensure the sale of those [companies – ed.] inefficiently used by the state
aimed to have investment and new jobs. We're talking about change", said
the Prime Minister adding that the reforms "are vital for both Ukraine and
Ukrainian citizens".
The financial
support for Ukraine is also important, according to Volodymyr Groysman,
although there have been observed growth of the National Bank’s of Ukraine foreign
exchange reserves and strengthening of the economy.
"We are making
headway within the planned figures. We are working. Together with the
Parliament and the President, we will implement the action program", said the
Prime Minister.
